executive summary: "please obscure the email addresses in the winehq mailing list archives, I'm drowning in spam"!
FWIW, Zack Brown and I began obscuring all the email address in the Wine Traffic / Kernel Traffic newsletters a while ago. They used to be embedded in the XML, HTML and various pages referenced on the site. However, any email sent to wine-devel before mid October will show up in the mailing list stats in the XML pages on both WineHQ and Wine Traffic (Zack's site).

they should also be obscured on all winehq.com website (there are plenty of them in current webpages...) I also think that our bugzilla has been crawled for email addresses
A+

I switched emails about a month ago. Let's see how long it takes for the new email to be harvested. So far, the only email that got spammed was the old one (I think. Due to my one email per activity rule, I get each spam multiple times. I don't bother checking each and every one which email it was sent to).
Let's not forget that they can also harvest emails by subscribing to the list direct.
