Emacs never sent email addresses by default, but it used to be
possible to customize 'url-privacy-level' so that the users email
address was sent along in HTTP requests. This feature has now been
removed, as it was considered more risky than useful. The user option
removed, as it was considered more dangerous than useful. RFC 9110
(§ 10.1.2) also recommends against it. The user option
'url-personal-mail-address' is now also obsolete.
To send an email address in the header of individual HTTP requests,
see the variable `url-request-extra-headers'.
