Comment:
By design, !CommentDetailsForm requires an email address. As a direct
consequence, so does !CommentForm. Many people rely on this behavior and
it should not be changed lightly.
If this is an issue for you, you can subclass !CommentDetailsForm and set
`blank=True` for the email field.
As far as I can tell, when a user is logged in and posts a comment without
filling in his details,
`django.contrib.comments.views.comments.post_comment` will add them based
on the user's profile. However, this is not documented. Since a user
without an email in his profile can always give it in the comments form, I
don't think there's a bug.
Please provide more information on how to reproduce your issue if this
answer is not satisfying.
