I don't see that happening. Sorry.

But it would look like:

My comment blah blah blah should end here.
New comment on your post "..."
Author : Their Name (IP: XX.XX.XX.XXX , XX-XX-XX-XXX. ...)
E-mail : [email redacted]
URL : http://domain.address
Whois : http://whois... etc.

That info shouldn't be public; and I always leave a space between the comment and this other detailed information. I've been doing the same thing for nearly five years; this has never happened before, and now it's happened to several readers.

Thanks you for the report. Will you please post a screenshot, upload it to your media library for Staff to examine and return here to post the file name? Then Staff can examine it and assist you.

This just started. I use Mozilla Thunderbird for email.
