Item9690: {AntiSpam}{EmailPadding} automatically filled with email address?

I get this on the login screen:

If you have any questions, please contact arthur@visibleareaarthur@visiblearea.com.com

• Configure and LocalSite contain the correct address
• Default skin has the same error
• Writing %WIKIWEBMASTER% in the login template gives the same error
• Writing %WIKIWEBMASTER% in any topic gives the same error
• User registration shows the correct address but it has a different format:

  <a href='mailto:%WIKIWEBMASTER%?subject=%TOPIC%&#32;Question'>%WIKIWEBMASTER%</a>

  , as does the page VarWIKIWEBMASTER (there it is not a link)

Arthur, Can you check what's configured in your LocalSite.cfg? The WIKIWEBMASTER macro is pretty simple - it comes directly out of the config. I don't see the same issue here.

$macros{WIKIWEBMASTER}     = sub { $Foswiki::cfg{WebMasterEmail} };

I see that any email address when typed in a topic gets double expanded. I have changed the summary.

Somehow the entry {AntiSpam}{EmailPadding} contained my email address. I did not fill this in myself, perhaps my browser used autofill?

It was. Nothing in the code that can prevent this, so I disabled the browser setting.
