So it doesn't occur to you that the software used by spammers will
evolve to be the most effective for the task? As soon as you admit that
what you are doing is not perfect you are admitting that their exist
e-mail address gathering techniques that are significantly superior to
those currently in common use. Give it time and those techniques will be
the ones in common use so all you may be doing by taking an approach
that 'mostly works' at present is guaranteeing yourself future
maintenance work to mitigate for the changing nature of the e-mail
address extracting software.
