Just to chime in with my2c, as Rudy mentioned, that's what <noscript>
is for. I'm currently using a javascript for email obfuscation of
mailto: links (as an aside, another benefit of the mailto: is you
*definitely* get a real email address for someone contacting you) in
combination with <noscript> tags which contain a contact form and am
very happy with this scheme. See:
http://www.municode.com/index.asp?nav=1&id=2 with javascript on and
off.
Furthermore, if you aren't doing your part as a developer to
lessen the amount of spam your organization receives before it ever
hits your filters, IMO, you're asleep at the wheel.
