Thanks! Will check that

Just as a caveat, be aware that your email address is already exposed if you use git and github: https://github.com/YOURLS/YOURLS/commit/cf7b2e6aedebe0c65466...

In general, hiding email addresses doesn't usually make the job of harvesters appreciably harder, and does make the life of genuine users a bit more painful.

We'll probably start hiding email addresses altogether once we have a messaging system so that it's still easy for npm users to contact one another when they need to. Until then, I'd accept a patch to do the standard silly "hiding" thing with some JS that shows it on the page.
