They simply can't be bothered to parse pages for blocks of four characters where the first and last match '&xx;' - they can't expend the resources, and they also know that you've made an effort to conceal your email in a 'sophisticated' way that means they know you're spam aware and know how to automate spam filtering. The most effective way to avoid this is simply to use a form on your site, but that's clumsy.
