This suits me fine, I can mail you, and you can't mail me back. :-) The fact is, I have my mail set up like that because I see a good 7 or 8 spam attempts per day. It's definitely on the increase since I started publishing my address and stopped trying to spam trap it. I've also seen several attempts at mailing the bait addresses, which means that I *know* that these things have been harvested relatively recently. If you don't like it, not really my problem. If you want to be so bloody minded, then that's fine, that reflects on you. I'm being bloody-minded as well, but with the attempts at spamming me that I see, running SAUCE has been really quite helpful. Most people can be bothered to make sure that their zones are RFC compliant. Most people who can't are spammers. (Note that I said most).
