That template (or image) when done properly (en.wikipedia) already gives "@" as
the alt text so when you copy and paste it still outputs the email address
properly.

If the whole address was a image, we would still want the alt text to be the
full email address for users that don't display images (or using a screen
reader package) so it would be no different than not using the image because
the address would still be intact.

Example of how they would be laid out:
Without any image: [email protected]
With at symbol as image: joe<img src="..." alt="@" />somebody.id.au
Full with alt: <img src="..." alt="[email protected]" />
