How to Hide Emails in the Contact Us List

Hi,

The whole point of having a Contact Us form is so that the public (and spam bots) never sees your actual email address. But I noticed on the Contact Us dropdown list, it shows both the name and the email:
John Doe [email protected]

I hope there's an easy setting to hide the actual email addresses, but I haven't been able to find it.

Is there any way to do this so that the list just shows:
John Doe

but behind the scenes, the email is sent to [email protected]?

Thanks.

Re: How to Hide Emails in the Contact Us List

Well, what you describe desired is how it used to work at least in ZC 1.5.1 which while improved is not much different from 1.5.0...

Has something else been changed about your site? I see that you are a long term visitor of the ZC forum, but 1.5.0 was not available at the time you joined. So what's the history on this site?

Also, what's the background on the template? Does everything "work" if you temporarily switch to the default template?
