We are - namely that when the box is ticked, he can still see his own address.
Currently the box isn't ticked, so although his address is not shown, the boards will send him an email on your behalf if you want.
If he ticks the box, his address still won't be shown, and we will not be able to send emails to him via the board.

Thanks for the clarification James. When signing up I was amazed to see that by default the "hide email address" box was not ticked. I then panicked when I saw that having ticked the box my email address was still visible (to me, as it turns out). The wording certainly needs improvement.
Also perhaps the "public" in "Hide email address from public" needs clarification. Presumably a board member can never be contacted via the board except by another signed-in board member. If so, the tick box should be something like "Refuse emails from other board members".
