The problem is that [EMAIL PROTECTED] is not globally unique.MIT users will have problems talk to [EMAIL PROTECTED] when "ai" means Anguilla. The is a current security issue. If / when MIT stop using ai.mit.edu, "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" will not longer mean [EMAIL PROTECTED] This will mean that any configuration file that has "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" will now, suddenly, get a different meaning. This is a latent security issue.
If by "latent" you mean "so obscure that in the ten years that there's been A and MX records at TLDs nobody's been affected" I guess I agree.
