I'm working on a page where the author insists on using mailto for now,
he will have me change it to a formmail later when he finds a permanent
home for the site.

I'm using an email obfuscator so spammers (search engines/robots?) don't
find his email address in the page, and I'm wondering if this approach
is good enough. The address (shortened) looks like this:

<a href="mailto:">
Click her</a>

Can the spammers decode this? If so, any suggestons about how I can make
it more difficult for them?

Any comments appreciated,
MIke
