Hiding Email Address

[myddryn]

Well, I've got the "hide email address from public" box ticked on my profile settings, but it's still showing up on the forums when I post

Anything else I can do?

It is hidden.

When you view your profile you will see your email address in italics (when hidden) or plain text when on public view.
This is because you have to have an email address to register and be able to see which one you used.

Thanks for that DB.

Don't worry about it, Myd, I asked exactly the same question. In a similar way, you will see the option to email yourself on your posts and in the Members list, but the rest of us do not.
