In the sidebar, my email address cuts off on certain devices.

In the sidebar of my blog, the email address in the Contact Me widget cuts off on certain devices. It looks fine on a PC and smart phone, and is also fine on iPad if it is held vertically. But it cuts off if the iPad is held horizontally.
Nothing I try can get it to appear across all platforms.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi Karyl,
There are two issues you’re contending with here. The first is clearly the length of the email address. We may find a way around this, such as allowing a line break after the @ sign…however, I recommend that you remove the email address altogether and add a contact form instead. Emails on public websites like yours are magnets for spammers. The nice thing about a contact form is that your visitors don’t have to leave your site to drop you a note. Also, our spam filter will assist in weeding out spam.
Here is information about adding a contact form:

Thanks Robyn. That works nicely for the individual posts.
Is there anyway to lock a contact form like that on the home page? My client really would like to give people the option from the start if possible.
Thanks.

If you’d like to add the contact form directly to the body of the home page, that’s absolutely possible. You can simply click the “Add Contact Form” button above the content box in your Page editor.
Give it a go, and if you need me to take a look or lend a hand, let me know. Thanks!

That doesn’t seem to be an option in the Page editor (unless I’m looking in the wrong place). The Add Contact Form button only appears as an option on the individual posts.

Hey Karyl,
We’re in the midst of upgrading our user interface for our Dashboard, so that button may not have been added yet!
In the meantime, you can add it in the classic Dashboard:
