When you set up phpBB, the admin can specify defaults.<br>
<br>
They include "Make email address private" and "Allow members to receive
private messages"<br>
<br>
The admin would set they defaults to "yes" and "no" respectively.<br>
<br>
That means the member would have to take an action (change a setting in
his profile or on an individual post) for his email address to be
exposed.<br>

OOTB (Out of the box) phpBB implements no e-mail munging or otherwise
spam protection.
Just FYI.

It has become apparent that there is someone on this list serve
taking email addresses and sending spam
(to its individuals and not directly to the list)
because i created this email addess specifically for this list serve
It is not listed online anywhere or registered on any webpages.
But i started getting spam in it just hours after sending my first message
to the list.
On a forum this would not happen
