What does the %MAKETEXT% string look like? If you want a translatable string to work properly, it has to be constant. If it contains a variable, it should be something like

%MAKETEXT{"E-mail address: [_1]" args="[[mailto:%WIKIWEBMASTER%]]"}%

Test: E-mail address: mailto:webmaster@foswiki.org

Test2: E-mail address: webmaster@foswiki.org

%IF{
  "context passwords_modifyable"
  then="<strong>%MAKETEXT{"After submitting this form, you will receive an e-mail with your new, *system-generated* password, and a link to a page where you can change it."}%</strong>"
  else="<strong>%MAKETEXT{"Sorry, the password system is currently read only, please contact [_1]" args="%WIKIWEBMASTER%"}%</strong>  %MAKETEXT{"E-mail address: [_1]" args="[[mailto:%WIKIWEBMASTER%][%WIKIWEBMASTER%]]"}% "
}% 

you can see your test in that there now. new screenshot coming

Checked 1.1.2 and trunk

Only issue is trailing dot. Adding one space fixes it
