Sounds like its phishing. If I were you I wouldn't click that link. I don't think the email is legit so its better to be safe that sorry dude. And LOL, the email doesn't looks professional at all. And thanks for sharing it to our community, so that others are warned as well.

Did they ask for a small amount to be sent to them first in order to send you the 5.8295? if not then you could open the link using various methods such as sandboxing, opening it through VPS, or an online VPS which also runs in your browser, you could run the link through virustotal to check for the safety. if at the end you find my methods useful don't forget to tip me, since I'm greedy and a beggar in general

I wouldn't click the link, it is likely malicious. I think they would reach out to you by physical mail if you were actually being compensated for mt gox losses.

Do not believe in any email that you are recieving these days,they are generated and send to different people emails to the steal the information once they click the link. Think before you click.

Totally scam, Don't expect that it is a legit unless you know that you participate or being involved on that matter.

 why don't you munge the link so it's not clickable and post it so we can make a real assessment?
Put a space between each character or change the "." to (dot) ie  w w w . m t g o x . c n
or www(dot)mtgox(dot)cn

If it was an email better to ignore them many scammers out there are doing email marketing than making spam of their scam website..
MT.gox is an old trading site that was down past few years ago.. its a big scam before..  
So that email that you receive is one of their new trick to scam someone.
