Okay as a user then.
A Member now has two email fields in their profile.
The main one used for registration is private and is used for things such as lost password,Watched topic notification,PM notification.
They now have a additional public email address field in their profile.
If they wish to allow others to send email then they would populate that field in their profile.
This was something added a while back to add some privacy for the user from spammers.
If they use the public email address then anyone that has access to view a profile can access the email address.
So if someone allows guests to view profiles on a board then the member would be subject to spam mail.
