Obviously, this solution requires users who activate the mailto link to double-check the "to" field in their email application. Heck, if I was in a rush, I'd probably miss it... Also, once a lot of people start doing this sort of thing, bot writers simply need to run a regex on their harvested results. When all is said and done, I'm still of the belief that the only two viable, long term options are: 1) use a contact form (and don't expose the target email address anywhere on the outside, but keep it within the server-side logic) 2) keep your email addresses clean and "un-munged", and run spam-assassin and junk filtering at your end Anything else will either have usability/accessibility implications, and it's only a matter of time until bot writers update their code. -- Patrick H.
