Prevent Spam
don't spread email addresses without their owners' permissions

Unfortunately, I can blame all of my spam on my friends, due to those awful long To/CC lists.

Email-spam is an unsolvable problem. It will only be solved when the nature of email changes (for example, by micropayments or networks of accountability.)

For this reason, I would appreciate it if you do your part in preventing spam.

(1) If you send email to a large list (>3), hide my address in the BCC.
(2) If you ever want to forward an email from me to a public mailing list, make sure you delete my email in the "From" and "Reply-To" fields. Likewise if you plan on posting an email of mine on the web. Spambots are very good at finding any emails published online.
This is common-sense netiquette.

I have a system of using forwarding addresses for different people, and getting rid those that start getting too much spam, setting up an AutoReply to redirect any potential mailers to this site  in order to get my new public address.
