I'm really surprised there is no admin option to NOT show user's email addresses. I'd be using it on a public site and that sure opens it up to spambots!

I could see it being OK for private internal only sites but not for social networking sites.

Well, my use case is an internal site, so it was designed with that in mind. However, you should be able to just not include the column for the user's email, and it won't be displayed...

I figured you designed it for an internal use site. And I can see it's merits.

I'm not a big fan of hacking the modules (since I'm not a programmer) and your suggestion would require editing the module I'm sure...and then when updates come out, I lose the changes and have to try to redo them.

I don't think you need to do any hacking.

Go to admin/settings/site_user_list/fields . Search for the words "Email Address". This should be a collapsible fieldset (probably expanded). The first menu should have the choices "not displayed", "hidden", "may be displayed", "displayed by default", and "always display". Set it to "not displayed", and the email address won't be displayed...

HTH,
