If you're interested, you can join the antispam movement in an active way by putting projecthoneypot.org code somewhere on your site.

To participate in Project Honey Pot, webmasters need only install the Project Honey Pot software somewhere on their website. We handle the rest -- automatically distributing addresses and receiving the mail they generate. As a result, we anticipate installing Project Honey Pot should not increase the traffic or load to your website.

I might give this one a try, nice to be part of the solution with email spam.

Some of my sites already run spider traps, so all I'll have to do is add this code to my spider trap code, I'll have to take a look at it.

I'm waiting to hear from them, I think I signed up, but I'm not sure. I like this kind of technique, it's very effective. There's certain things those jerks simply can't hide.
