Hi Sayad Sharif

Once try following Code:
In custom/modules/Cases/clients/base/views/record/record.js file add code as:

({
    extendsFrom: 'RecordView',
    initialize: function(options) {        
        this._super('initialize', [options]);
        this.on("render",this.emailAsLink,this);         
        this.events['click a[name=email_compose]'] = 'openComposerModal';
    },   
    emailAsLink: function(){
          var emailtoLink = $("span[data-fieldname='your-custom-fieldname'] span div").text();
          var rLink = '<a data-event="button:email_compose:click" href="javascript:void(0)" rel="tooltip" data-placement="bottom" title="'+emailtoLink+'" name="email_compose">'+emailtoLink+'</a>';          
          $("span[data-fieldname='your-custom-fieldname'] span div").html(rLink);
          
     },
    openComposerModal: function(){          
          var emailAddress = this.model.get('your-custom-fieldname');
          var caseName = '[CASE:'+this.model.get('case_number')+'] '+this.model.get('name');     
          //console.log("emailAddress: ",emailAddress);     
          toAddresses =({
            email: emailAddress,
            module: 'Contacts'            
          });
          console.log("toAddresses: ",toAddresses);     
          options = ({
               to_addresses: toAddresses,
                        subject: caseName
          });
          app.drawer.open({
            layout:'compose',
            context:{
               create: true,
               prepopulate: options,
               module:'Emails',
             }
          });
     }
})
