I was looking for an extention that could extact or copy email address from all tab. Same as firefox's extention named: "Email Extractor". Is there any like that?

Why such extension should even be allowed? Why a regular user would want to collect e-mail addresses on web pages?

An extension to automatically convert an email address to a mailto link makes sense and probably exists - something like Linkify (which converts text URLs to links) might even do that. Not sure what creating a list of all email addresses on a page would do for the typical user - or anyone other than those trying to harvest email addresses to sell to spammers.

I see no problems on such extensions but I'm not sure if I would call them 'e-mail extractors'. I see an 'e-mail extractor' tool as something that scan a page looking for e-mail addresses and build a list with them to be used later.
