While I don't run the SVLUF archives, I munge the email addresses in
my list archives via the script at:

  ftp://ftp.kanga.nu/pub/MHonArc/emailmunge

It is hardly elegant, but it works.

My only explanation for the trivial quantity of spam I receive these
days is that the email address collectors don't like email addresses
from non .com, .org, .edu. or .net addresses.  Don't know if that's
true, but I'm down to one or two per month now, max, and my email
addresses are well spread.
