    Visible email addresses

    Pardon the barrage of posts, but we just went live with our vBulletin board and I am getting a lot of inquiries.

    Is it possible to make every user's email address visible to other users? Like in the user's profile or elsewhere?

    I realize I can probably add a user profile field and allow users to voluntarily input their email address, but I'm hoping for an automatic solution that will display the email address the user uses to login.

      Do you mind me asking why you would want to do this?

      Personally I wouldn't join a forum that displayed my email address, it would have to be my choice if I wanted to share or not.

      I'm very careful where I share my email address but still get spam, imagine the amount you would get if it were public!
