Are you posting through Google Groups?  Sometimes I see that warning as well.

Some, but not all, Usenet software deliberately mangles email addresses when 
composing posts.  It's a good thing to mangle email addresses when posting 
publicly, as it makes it harder for spammers to find new targets.  So answer 
"yes", and manually edit any email addresses you see in the post so that they 
can't be recovered.  For example, if my email address was posted undisguised, 
you could edit it to "j...@g...com" and that should do the trick.
