[Mediawiki-l] protect email adresses from bots

[Florian Knorn]

Dear Gary,

thanks for your reply. As I said, I'm specifically after an /automated/
implementation at the stage where the mail adresse are being parsed...

Also, I think don't think the (as you say) standard AT / DOT trick will
"fool" /any/ spam spider anymore...

Anyone else?

Best regards,

Florian :-)
