Description Tom Fogal 2009-05-26 10:49:45 UTC 
I just entered bug 21942, and notice that my email address appears verbatim
when viewing the bug.

Of course this allows bots to scrape my email from it.  Ideally, the address
would only be visible to logged in users.  Could they at least be obscured in
some way, though?
Comment 1 Benjamin Close 2009-06-10 16:28:12 UTC 
Some details about obfuscation in bz - looks like 3.2 series supports it
Comment 2 Tom Fogal 2009-09-26 11:34:55 UTC 
I think the previous comment was incorrect, but it looks like this *is* supported now:

So, it looks like a simple upgrade would fix this.

Bugzilla has been upgraded and so this bug should now be fixed.
