E.g.: The address as I see it in email is conprog at rochester.rr.com ([email protected]). (Rick, can you correct me of that's not right?) Since most Groups are world-readable, email addresses would be available to email-harvesting 'bots if they weren't obfuscated somehow. It's a constant struggle. On the one side, the forces of light don't want to lose the benefit of a clickable email link, on the other is some Russian with a few ten-thousand Python scripts scraping the web for valid email addresses wherever it can find them. A lot of websites try to obfuscate the addresses in ways that make it not cost effective for the 'bots to harvest them, while still making them clickable in browsers. Google's solution is simpler: just break the address.
