untested.

In public_edit_profile.pl
FIND:

Code

		<input type="radio" id="EmailView-noform" name="EmailView" value="noform" $ev_form /> <label for="EmailView-noform">$vars_wordlets{email_form_only}</label>

REPLACE WITH:

Code

		<input type="hidden" id="EmailView-noform" name="EmailView" value="noform" />

then, a few lines later, find:

Code

	if($vars_display{EmailBlock} ne "OFF") {
		$viewable = qq~<input type="hidden" name="EmailView" value="no" />~;
	} # end if

ADD AFTER:

Code

 $viewable = qq~$email_view_pref2~;

In public_register_form.pl

FIND:

Code

	my @op1 = qw(yes noform no);
	my @op2 = qw(yes no);
	my @opts = ($vars_email{UserMailPref} eq "ON" ? @op1 : @op2);
	print &GenerateLineHTML("REQ", $vars_wordlets{email_viewable},
	"", "EmailView", "radio",
	{ yes => $vars_wordlets{email_viewable_yes}, no => $vars_wordlets{email_viewable_no}, noform => $vars_wordlets{email_form_only} },
	[@opts], "yes");

REPLACE WITH:

Code

print qq~<input type="hidden" id="EmailView-noform" name="EmailView" value="noform" />~;

Untested, but should work
