I believe that it is no big thing to include "support" for "email at 
host" in email-collector robots.
If "email at host" is the general format to "protect" against robots it 
will no longer be a protection.

The question is if the sender adress has to be to be published in any 
form? I think an archive is more
suitable for just following previous threads than contacting someone 
months or years later.
