The best we can do here is implement something simple now that gets the job done, and continuously test it to see if it's still good enough. When it's not, we build another countermeasure.
I completely disagree. You argue for job security. I argue for better software. Temporary solutions are not solutions.
Ok. Show me a solution that will protect list administrator addresses and publicly accessable list archives from email harvesting, while allowing list subscribers and members of the public the ability to contact the list admin in the event of a list related problem and allowing them to contact an individual personally in response to some message in the archive. The solution must not penalize text only web browser users, or the disabled, nor should it open up any other vectors for unsolicited mass emailing.
I'd really like to see one.
