If the magnet link doesn't come through as a link in your email client, just copy and paste into your browser's address bar instead.
magnet:?xt=urn:btih:5Y3ZO4CBBUNA5CDGSJDJKIAF37O37WW3
If that doesn't work, you don't have a compatible client - I use and recommend uTorrent on windows, Transmission on a Mac and Transmission or KTorrent on Linux.
