Problem/Motivation

In the user settings of the user contact form the text says:

Personal contact form
Allow other users to contact you via a personal contact form which keeps your email address hidden. Note that some ...

is not correct. The email address of the user is in the Reply-to header of the send mail.
If the recipient looks into the email source text or responds to the email, he see the email address of the original sender.

User interface changes

  • Correct the text like this example:
  • Or set the reply-to to the site email for realy hidden user address.
  • Or make it user-selectable, reply-to own address or site address.

    As catch points out this is working as designed. It has been two years since then and there has been no following discussion to support changing the text. Therefor, per #14, I am closing this issue.
