David,
By munging your address before the @ sign and not after it does that not
mean that Verizon.Net still get targeted by the spam/viruses/worms/whatever
even although it is undeliverable? I thought that it was better to munge
the address after the @ sign, (or both before and after), to prevent the ISP
being brought down with the volume of undelivered mail.
