A simple idea I saw is to munge characters in the address as HTML- and
URL-encoded text.  I don't actually know how effective this would be,
but hopefully not many email-collecting robots will decode the
following properly:

    <A HREF="mailto:c%2Eevans%40clear.net.n%7A";>c.e&#118;ans&#64;clear&#46;net.nz</A>

(Note especially that there are no "@" characters for them to spot.)
