If I were a spammer looking for email addresses…

nonlinearmind:

I would simply sift through blogs for “at gmail” or “[at] gmail [dot] com” and just replace them with “@gmail.com” and spam the hell out of all of you who think you are cleverly avoiding such from happening.  Want a better way to post your email publicly? Try:

“non4linearmind@gmail.com (remove the number four)”

He is right, if you want better email security from bots scouring through pages upon pages looking for spammable address you could be an easy target. The solution listed above is the best way to go about it.
