E-Mail Visibility

Several users have asked about their e-mails being visible after they have selected to hide their e-mail addresses. I have personally checked this myself and if you select your e-mail to be private nobody can see it besides you and the admins. I already had the settings so that e-mails are not visible to unregistered users (guests) as well. The additional option each user has also does in fact hide their e-mails from everyone but forum administrators. The e-mails are not visible to anyone else. I will look for an option so that e-mail is private by default as well.

Ok the forum is now modified so that no user can see the addresses of any other user regardless of settings. Private messaging is the only way to contact other forum members.

Hmm... I'm able to see other people's email addresses. Perhaps you upgraded the forum software and it reverted the setting?
