It's less arrogant than TMDA, but it's still a clumsy way to get email from a Web site. There are much better ways. For one thing, there are various ways of obfuscating mailto: links so that the email-spidering software used by spammers won't see them. The method I use is to have email forms on my Web sites, these send mail directly to me and are invulnerable to spammers. Passwords might be a good compromise if you do lots of posting to USENET, though. -- Michael Moncur mgm at starlingtech.com http://www.starlingtech.com/ "There must be more to life than having everything." --Maurice Sendak ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Spamassassin-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/spamassassin-talk
