[AccessD] OT: My First Web Page

IMO, you can significantly reduce the chance of spam email by creating an
image button that has your address and just putting JavaScript code behind
it to handle the hyperlink (if you even want a direct link).

It is possible that your website may be read and the email addresses scraped
by scammers but if you have or acquire any profile on the web search engines
you email address is going to be right out there.

The people that scrape for emails do it for a living and will not be fooled
by any web site trickery... It might have worked 5 to 10 years ago but the
scamming group has become far more sophisticated. Your best security, these
days, is to have a good ISP unless you are hosting your own email server. 

If you do have your own Email Server be prepared to spend a lot of time
tricking, modifying and reconfiguring... it can be a full-time job just to
run day to day stuff and if you get some serious hacker there may be little
you can do to block them indefinitely.

Or replace it with this:

 <style type="text/css">span.codedirection { unicode-bidi:bidi-override;
direction: rtl; }</style>
<p align=center><span class="codedirection">moc.snoitulosorcim at ofni
:liamE</span></p>

Not many website scrapers will pick that up.
