Is it possible that in order to thwart email harvesting that we institute a policy of munging the addresses? Like... hostmaster [at] ca.freebsd.org or even hostmaster [at] ca [dot] freebsd [dot] org I have received 200+ spam messages in the past 12 hours alone sent to that address, and that's after some pretty good filters...
