Feature request: address munging as an option for one's email in profile

Hello,

It would be nice, when showing mail address to anyone, to have an option for making it unfriendly to spam bots that collect mail addresses.

I have no preference on how it could be done: image (which could be stored in database as a blob), client-side generated or with -AT- -DOT- strings in it. Perhaps, an image would be the nicest solution.

It may be combined with, if that's not already working that way, a filter for any well-known spambot's User-Agent(s) so that they even don't see it and don't cause hits to the database.

I hope that feature request will be taken in account smile I deem it important not only for the spammed people but also for the cost spam induces on its whole path.

Mmmm,

I just saw for my own profile [at] inserted within my Jabber ID...
I don't know if it's prior to my request and, I don't know if the same now happens for the email address too. However, it would be logical it does smile

If so, my feature request can be ignored smile
