I'm assuming you mean so you can change it from unknown to something else?

It's located in the JFBConnect Authorization plugin, line 86:
$response->email = $fbUser."_".$fbUserId."@unknown.com";

We added a note to our case tracker to make this configurable in the future. We'd likely do this using the langauge file. Let us know if you have any issues/questions.

I don't know if you guys have noticed JConnector Module for Joomla. This creates a pseudo user with a proxy email value that comes from the fb api.

Thanks for giving more information. I remember reading about the proxy email addresses when we were going through feature lists of FBConnect long ago, but had actually forgotten about them.

I've updated our tracker. If it's simple enough (some things in FB are, some aren't), we'll try to get it in the next version.

Hi, any update to this?
If you're adding the proxy email address then I presume you'll also be adding the extended permissions to allow the email address to work? (proxy email won't work unless the user has given permission [url:26lbsk4a]http://wiki.developers.facebook.com/index.php/Proxied_Email[/url:26lbsk4a])

Of note this proxyemail is being deprecated and replaced by direct access to the users email address [url:26lbsk4a]http://wiki.developers.facebook.com/index.php/Roadmap_Email[/url:26lbsk4a]; will this be taken into consideration when the it's live?

We're looking into it, but don't have a timeline for it yet. Thanks for the deprecation notice, we weren't aware of that!
