I have a question regarding hiding email addresses:
It appears that 'obscuring' emails consists to be replacement of the at
symbol with %40
- this is not adequate as many scraping products will recognize this
is there any option for public archives to really thwart scraping ?
eg.
me at myaddress.com to be shown as: me at myaddress dot com
[yes, this would invalidate any href=mailto links]
or by a javascript entry like:
<script language=javascript>
<!--
var aka = "my name"
var prefix = "me"
var domain = "myaddress.com"
document.write("<a href=" + "mail" + "to:" + prefix + "@" + domain + ">" +
aka + "</a>" + ".")
//-->
</script>
[yes, this won't work if javascript is unavailable]
I am using Mailman version 2.0.13
