Yes. The amount of time spent keeping my spam filter well-trained is far smaller than the amount I'd lose faffing around with countless throwaway email addresses. I have to expose my address on the internet anyway for it to be useful. Hiding it from Usenet isn't going to gain me anything useful. > Obfuscated or not that's either brave or foolhardy! I haven't noticed much spam to email addresses I use on Usenet, and the spam filter catches it all. But regardless, a well-trained spam filter allows me to continue using a consistent, working email address. -- \ “Everything you read in newspapers is absolutely true, except | `\ for that rare story of which you happen to have first-hand | _o__) knowledge.” —Erwin Knoll | Ben Finney -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
