You're correct that we're in that position: we see it everywhere, from Google's needlessly-obfuscated Usenet archives (like spammers don't have their own NNTP feeds and haven't already harvested all email addresses long before Google publishes them) or the presence of address-obfuscation code in mail archivers (e.g., even the notes on the newest/development version of Mailman talk about the need for such obfuscation). And I _think_ we're in concurrence that it's a pointless waste of code and effort: spammers either have or will have soon any address that's actually used. (And will successfully guess at many that exist but aren't used.) The meta-problem we face is that "cargo cult" mentality that persists in the belief that it's possible to hide addresses from spammers. I've found it quite difficult to dislodge, and -- as I commented elsewhere -- am often by the irony that the people prattling the loudest about it are running Windows on their desktop/laptop are thus stand a reasonable chance of being the primary vector by which their address(es) is/are harvested by spammers. ---Rsk
