It would prevent well-behaving robots from indexing the page at all, but
robots that collect addresses for spamming can hardly be expected to be
well-behaving.
(If you want to prevent spammers to get your email address at any cost, get
rid of all email addresses you have and don't ever get one. That's the only
method that actually works for the purpose. If you just want to use email
for something useful, find out an optimal way of doing spam filtering. Do
_not_ make this your visitors' problem.)
