Hi John What do you recommend as the most effective method of preventing email addresses from being picked up, for junk mail purposes? Thanks Lynn

Hi Lynn, I have a "Mail Cloaker" rule for PageBlaster that hides them from spiders. <rule><ruleName>MailTo Cloaker</ruleName><searchFor>href=['"]?mailto:(\w+[a-zA-Z0-9.\-_]*)@(\w+)\.(\w+)['"]?</searchFor><replaceWith>href="javascript:window.location.replace('ma'+'ilto:'+'$1'+'@'+'$2'+'.$3')"</replaceWith></rule>

Another effective way is to put your e-mail addresses in an image, but that does not make it easy for someone to just click on the link and send an e-mail. You can also use some sort of feedback form that sends e-mail from the site so that you never have to expose the e-mail address directly.
