I would like to extract the email address from my forum to keep them as a backup. There are programes called email extractors or email harvestors that can do this, but they are not cheap. Anyone know any free ones?

You already have all your members email addresses backup-ed in your forum db tables.

For phpBB, they are all located in the phpbb_users table : user_email.
It would be easy to query the list, there must be some mod to already do it for you.

Then, I don't know much about harvester, actually I tend not to show my user emails to non-registered users, I find it safer, so all I do is fight them Very Happy
