Hi Saša.

We do not edit comments, we do not have tools to manage comments. I have experienced the same problem that I see in comments 17 and 19. Those email addresses are only visible to logged launchpad users. Bots and anonymous users will see "<email address hidden>". I hope this sets you mind at ease.

Sasha, I see your reply but am not sure if your problem was actually solved or not. I saw your email into feedback; I thought that Curtis' reply had satisfied your issue, but if not, let's figure it out.

We can edit comments in the DB directly, but it is a rather exceptional situation.

Hello Christian,

I'm not having a problem actually. As you might notice from the comments in the bug report, oss-test-launchpad has/had a problem with me quoting his e-mail address. It grew into a bigger discussion. I know there's absolutely no (or really minimal) spam risk when someone quotes someone's e-mail address, as it isn't visible to the unregistered persons. Though, he insisted for it to be removed. I'm not sure whether his e-mail still need to be removed from the comments, or not. Also, those comments are already archived on mailing list archives IIRC, so I really don't see a point. Since there was no reply from him, nor a single comment on this question, I think we can think of it as solved.
