I think the reason is, if you write your e-mail address on forums correctly, there is a risk (don't really know if it is real, or just some 'urban legend') that the address is picked up by spammers and you'll start receiving lots of junk mail.

But........... errrrmmmmmmm.......... wouldn't they pick it up anyway?
Not if 'they' ere automated, they only look for 'real' e-mail addresses.

Hrm, pm's are not working correctly, so here are the news:
Zurich, I'm sorry, saw your pm with your mail addy to late, I'll send you an invitation when I get the next batch :?
Deepak:
So you should have your invitation in your inbox. There's been rumors amongst gmail users that other providers are sometimes blocking/filtering the invitations, I dunno

AT = @, DOT = .

this is true. you can harvest emails by having bots surf popular forums. Using cute substitutes is not effective as its not hard to make the bot convert AT or DOT into @ and . If thats all your counting on protecting your email address then you will be saddly disappointed.rabidrabbit said:
On a side note, some websites require you to recognize a small image embedded with a word/number which is supposed to be hard for computers to recognize. However ingenious people, just quickly took that image, and put it on free porn sites that require users to decode to see the page.
Its not that easy to fool these people from spamming. epic
I'd thank you if you could send me a invitation to gmail service, i need to get rid of this shitty mail server.
My email is: apoc@e-milio.com
