I think the initiative to ensure that people had secure login passwords (which happened, oh, months back) reset people's email preferences - I had no idea that my preferences had changed until a good while later (not that it matters much in my case, but however...)
Ah. Those who got hit with guessable passwords.... ;)
I haven't changed my password either, so it couldn't be that my password was guessable (or if it was, it still is...).
It looks like at some point in 2006 a bunch of email addresses got unconfirmed, without being changed. I had last confirmed mine in 2003, and "email this user" worked perfectly fine until at least February 2006 (the last time I got email through that feature). Didn't notice until now that somehow it had stopped.
