I don't know, that doesn't look like the type of address that I would be to sad about losing. Unless your name is "xyzzy1" :)

I learned quite a while ago that if you are posting to a list like this, your going to get spammed. Spam harvesters can pick up foo(at)bar.com just as easy as foo@xxxxxxxx How long would it take to put together a substitution table for the common ways people try to mask it, about 5 minutes? Seriously. Spammers may be scum, but don't assume that they can't program (or hire people that can)

Just set up an account that you only use for posting on e-mail lists, and let it collect the spam. Keep your private accounts private.

Another advantage of this method is that you can just set up positive match filters - so you only keep the e-mail if it came from one of your subscribed lists. If not, trash it. No one else should be e-mailing you at your list address (if they expect you to see it)
