I have the impression that you published a lot of e-mail addresses in
plain "mailto:" format. You may use something like this (or there are
other more sophisticated techniques):

<a href="mailto:
&#119;ebmaster&#64;enetplanet&#46;c&#111;m">&#119;ebmaster&#64;enetplanet&#46;c&#111;m</a>

- the e-mail address will still look normal to visitors, but it will
make life a bit more difficult to spammers, who collect e-mail addresses
from pages automatically.

Or are we at the point of eliminating spam completely? If not than it
will save some time to all those people looking through uninvited ads
via e-mail.

Cheers! A.
