Dennis, I found these links that might help some.
Maligning the email address to make it unusable until the user makes the necessary adjustments in their email progeam. Doesn't always work: http://radawana.cg.tuwien.ac.at/~martinpi/palinro2.html "How did they get my email address?" is a really comprehensive look at how spammers get your email address off the Web. Might provide some insight on different methods. The author mentions a "poison CGI script" that he uses to keep his email addresses on the site safe, but doesn't list it in the article: http://afterstep.davidv.net/howaddy.htm Last, but not least, a web page that actually gives you some solutions, as well as the reasons. See - "mailto.cgi" - link at bottom of page: http://radawana.cg.tuwien.ac.at/~martinpi/internet.html#SPAM Hope something here helps...

I recall a substitute for the mailto: as being %40: but that does not work. Anyone have a clue? This change helps keep the spam bots from adding your website email address to their list of addresses to spam. Help would be great, thanks -- Dennis M. linux user #180842 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?
