That's exactly what I am doing. The only real address will now be inside the message at the bottom instead of in the normal email address spot. I use Mailwasher to bounce and delete spam and so far haven't had to include the addresses used at this site, but now it's getting too annoying, so I am joining in with all the others that post a fake address in that spot.
There is a really simple script change that can turn that address into a less easily readable graphic in this type of bulletin board software (wwwboard), but I can't find it any more. I sent it to Terry once, but since they've planned to move to a different system it didn't seem to be needed. The "email poison" at the bottom seemed to stop most of the email address harvesters, but lately they are getting around it somehow. They send their annoying ads and most of them claim we subscribed to their email list. I don't know why they would expect people to do business with them when their first contact is through a lie.
So, from now on, it is annonymous email except in the last line of the text.
