| Every person who has their e-mail in their profile leaves themselves susceptible to being a victim of spammers. A lot of time spammers will browse a site searching only for e-mail addresses. They even have programs now that will record all e-mail addresses that are listed on the site so that they can send their annoying spam messages to. I think all e-mail addresses should be kept anonymous. Maybe you could write a script that will send e-mails directly from the site similar to what ebay has done with their site. I think this would benefit everyone on the forum, not to mention it would keep spammers from running bandwidth consuming, automated programs on every member's profile.
