For security and privacy purposes, users should be allowed to suppress their email address from anyone that views their profile.

Is that possible today?

Although I'm new at YAF, it appears to me that by default users cannot see other users' e-mail when looking at their profile.

If you don't want them sending e-mail (which doesn't reveal the e-mail address as it sends through the forum), uncheck "Allow Email Sending" under Host Settings and they will only be allowed to PM each other.

bstrongspreaktru speaks truelly in this matter.

When I post FP:Mek in a topic, I'm leaving my footprint there so I can track it once I get into coding/supporting. (Yes I stole this off Ederon 🙂 )
