Vincent,

Yes, this is a legitimate concern.  Fortunately, Trac allows you to use 
either your user ID or your email address in the CC list. I've replaced 
your email address with your ID (cameleon) in every ticket where you 
were on the CC list, so I believe it should no longer be exposed via any 
Yorba Trac pages.

Of course, it would better for our Trac server to obfuscate all email 
addresses on all pages accessed anonymously (i.e. without logging in).  
Trac has a configuration option which is supposed to enable such 
obfuscation, but I haven't been able to get it working.  We'll look into 
this more soon.  I've created a Yorba infrastructure ticket to track 
this issue: http://trac.yorba.org/ticket/2753 .  Feel free to add 
yourself to the CC list.  ;)
