Wouldn't it make sense to accept [EMAIL PROTECTED], but NOT DISPLAY IT on the
address bar? so even if someone clicks on a shady link, they don't see

address bar? And with all those miserable encoded characters translated
back to plaintext too. Yeah I know. silly idea. Just too bloody obvious
I guess.
