      Description

      Deactivation of 'Use email address in reply' in the forum module settings (Site administration ► Plugins ► Activity modules ► Forum -> forum_replytouser) does not work, Moodle continues to send out forum mails with the users email address as sender. Setting users emaildisplay to 'Hide my email address from everyone' seems to be the only way to avoid this
