Looking closer at the mailing list archives, I noticed that "@" was changed to "at" in all email addresses, even ones in the body of the message. So I opened http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26920 for it.

Marc: I have no idea if a fix is possible, but even if it is, it is not likely to solve your spam problem. If you are on the mailing list, you will inevitably receive spam that has been posted on the forum.  In addition, most of our spammers are real human beings who are perfectly capable of figuring out your email address even if the @ is taken out. Bottom line: if you don't want to risk your email address appearing on the forum, post directly to the forum.
