Obscufated email ?

Little hack to make a bit harder for spammers to parse email address on the web.
def cryptEmailAddress(addr):
r = []
for l in addr:
r.append(’&#%d;’ % ord(l))
return string.join(r,”)

>>>cryptEmailAddress(’jkx@larsen-b.com’)
‘jkx@larse….’
And simply put this in a href mailto: and enjoy :) Check the article’s pages on this website for a example.
