I agree with Stuart about dropping the emails from posts in the archive.

I get about 40 spams a day from being on listservers that archive their posts
on the net without altering the email address. I know this, as I am very
careful in all other areas of my net use not to get it published.

Don't worry I have a spam filter running that catches 98 to 100% of it with
very few mistakes.
