Until your real email address gets out there.
And then you're history.
Look at it this way - you give your mum your real email address,
because you know she's not a spammer. She forwards you a joke, and
CC's a whole bunch of co-workers. One of those co-workers forwards
that email to somewhere that gets archived on the web. And her MUA
includes all those people's email addresses. BAM.
But if you had a proper client that hid all the work, you could
"give" a different e-mail address to every correspondent, and if it
leaked out, you need only cancel that one and give that particular
correspondent a freshly-generated address, no?
