A technical solution could be for the mailing list to eat the email and at
the bottom include a link to an image (or a captcha protected page) which
would contain the persons email address for off-list contact.

But it's worth adding, that I have a dedicated email account that has been
used for mailing lists over the last couple of years. In total it has been
hit by perhaps 2 or 3 spam messages (which makes me believe that they were
randomly guessed rouge spam rather than something harvested). So perhaps I'm
lucky, but it doesn't currently seem like a problem.


If you're concerned, create a different email account. It's hard to keep
your email address private on a public list =)
