Descripción

When somebody replies to my message on the forums, my email address is visible! Spambots harvest the web for email addys. This is not good.

Also, in the profile settings it says "The e-mail address is not made public and will only be used if you wish to receive a new password or wish to receive certain news or notifications by e-mail."

Trisquel:

We can't stop users from posting email addresses. But they are not accessible to spambots, a filter masks them so the actual text shown is "foo [at] bar [dot] com".

I'm sure many spam bots can decypher that address.

Perhaps coupling together the forums and the mailing lists isn't a good idea.
