Just for the record. I will not post to USENET given the spamming that seems to go to IDs that appear there.

Just add an anti-spam segment to your email address.

example:

jsmith[at]foo.com

Most people worth talking to have enough of a clue to replace [at] with @.

Actually, I have a completely valid email address in this post (for now). If it gets spammed I will just delete the DNS record. (or maybe point it back at the spammer. :) And I'm sure we all know how to use remailers...
