I did a
find "@"
search in my FTP area and eliminated all the exposed email addresses and
either added a link to a mailform or replaced the mailto: with a browser
parsed javascript (no email adresses visible in the text)
still a legacy of them, luckily they are all "dispensible" so get deleted
when incoming
Liverpool University Alumni published all email addresses of the alumni
"visible" ( mailto:) so am still being festooned at my hotmail address as
they seem to refuse to take them down :)
