Just got my first EasyDiscuss "Email Digest" - Fantastic feature!
I noticed though it includes the email of those who posted... I run a community forum where everyone is happy to contribute and share within the forum, but personal emails don't show anywhere (hopefully!)
Isn't it a privacy security issue to have them in these digests? Couldn't the link just go to the member's profile on the site?
(My forum is members only, but I suspect this is built as well for guest posters who aren't members - in those cases perhaps their emails do show on the site if they provide them - again though, wouldn't it be better just to link through to the post in question, and not provide the personal email directly?)
