Confluence 2.0 to 2.5 Documentation

Index

Confluence provides three options for email address privacy which can be configured by a site administrator from the Administration Console:

  • Public: email addresses are displayed publicly.

  • Masked: email addresses are still displayed publicly, but masked in such a way to make it harder for spam-bots to harvest them.

  • Private: only site administrators can see the email addresses.

Anyone in the confluence-admininistrators group will still be listed (with their email address) on the administrators page, although their addresses will be masked.

To configure user email visibility,

  1. From the 'Administration Console' click on 'General Configuration' in the left panel.

  2. This will display the 'Options and Settings' screen. Click 'Edit'.

  3. Beside 'User email visibility', select one of the options: 'Public', 'Masked', or 'Private'.

  4. 'Save' your changes.
