In that case my point is proven.

You could also liken this to the idea that security through obscurity is
not security at all.

do they just scan the pages, or do they look at the final ouput (ei, 
after all the document.write's)?
I dont know much about this stuff.

document.write("user" + "@" + "domain." + "com");

This will help reduce the spam we get.

The problem is that this list is archived in a zillion places, and the
list moderators don't have any control over the archives. It's up to
the individual archive maintainers to deal with this kind of thing. For
instance, marc.theaimsgroup.com, phpbuilder.com, and anybody who runs
an NNTP web interface which includes this list--just to name a few--have
web-accessible archives of this list, and are unaffiliated with the PHP
group.

The only real solution would be to set up mail aliases for each
list your on.  Unfortantly not everyone has the ability to do this.

'Until' is a bit optimistic. They've been doing that for quite some
