There are many, many failure scenarios. It's not a general-purpose anti-spam mechanism. It's designed for two very narrow situations: 1) Giving an e-mail address to an untrustworthy Web site, because you want information from the Web site operator, and 2) Subscribing to a mailing list without worrying about spam from list-archive scrapers. (In this case, the lock mechanism MUST be set to "hold for review" rather than "reject".) For anything else, especially personal correspondence, you should give your real e-mail address.
