BTW, here's a trick you might be interested in if you really
want to put your e-mail id on your web page.  Using the #if
instruction in SSI, write out the anchor tag only if the
user agent is not the infamous EmailSiphon.  It may help to
reduce the amount of spam you receive.

Alternatively, you could return 404 if it's the EmailSiphon
visiting.

(Then again, it's hard to tell if the small amount of spam I
receive at my personal e-mail id is due to this trick or due
to filtering by my ISP.)
