[Sheflug] Spam



Guys,

Just as a warning, some dumb spammer is running a harvester over
http://krom.meiring.org.uk/sheflug/mailarchive/, advertising some
peak-rate phone number.

It's supposedly from "peter [at] u.kestates.co.uk" (the domain is detagged; I
don't necessarily believe it's a valid address anyhow), but is some guy
on a Tiscali dial-up.

How do I know he's crawling the archive? Well, he's even sending mail to
the 'addresses' in the References: line :(

Would it be possible to de-robot-friendly the mail archive? I know it's
a pain in the ass, but I would suspect the problem would only get worse.
I can provide suitable scripts/other help if required.

Cheers,

Alex.
