 * What email settings do you have in the Mail tab panel?
 * To protect personal data, hiding email addresses in the settings or replacing
   them with dummy addresses is strongly advised. You can also [include screenshots](https://wordpress.org/support/forum-user-guide/faq/#can-i-include-screenshots-or-videos).
