I was told that most addresq harvesting spamware misparses e-mail
addresses that contain "interesting" characters. Adding
characters such as '$' to e-mail addresses or making such
characters the delimeters is effective if your goal is to stop
spam directed at you.

I know someone whose e-mail address starts with #!/bin/sh@ .
