I'm not entirely happy with the idea that you're signing me up as a

data commissioner issues with that, though I wouldn't know what the

This is going to do stupid things in people's contact databases too.
Either your email will be associated with all their contacts or
they'll get a single contact with all the names of all the forum users
in it. Either way is pretty bad.
