Summary: Leave choice on obfuscation method to sysadmin

Initial Comment:
As far as I know, currently the way pipermail
obfuscates email addresses is hardcoded to "user at
domain.com". This is really easy to harvest.

It may be a better idea to leave the method of
obfuscation to the mailman (sys)admin (not list admin).
This will result in increased diversity of obfuscation
methods on the several pipermail setups and thus to
decreased harvesting.
