But can someone point to a quote which says specifically that that's the use of the phrase that the coding team know they're supposed to be using? I mean they don't say Anonymous matches can't send or receive emails from those with whom they're still Anonymous. They say Anonymous Matches can't send or receive emails period. IOW the coding team may be using 1 setting from the profile when your definition seems to be from somewhere else (i.e. I'm not sure if I could recognize your definition from any of the queries in the Profile setting page.)

I agree. And the programming is probably all done and tested. After the initial crash that usually accompanies these things, we'll just have to adjust.

It's not a question of speculation. It's a question of doing one's best to make sure the barn door was closed properly rather than chasing a loose horse for hours or days or weeks.
