Ahem, answered part of my own message...I put <SPAMMODE> in my resource

However, this doesn't work for old messages...
Here's a little script I wrote when I was in the same situation. It's
more aggressive than spammode, though, because it cloaks all addresses
in the file.
#!/usr/local/bin/perl -pi~
s|([\!\%\w\.\-+=/]+@)([\w\.\-]+)|$1.('x' x length($2))|ge
Well, thanks for this...just for interest's sake, below is what I came up
with based on this, with the help of a Perl hacker...
I added a bit to the rule so my own email address wouldn't be munged,
cos it appears in the footer of every message in the archive.
The script below basically does <SPAMMODE> AND <NOMAILTO>

#!/usr/local/bin/perl -pi~

John.
P.S. You may note that the 2nd line redoes some of what the first line did,
this was because I was trying to do it all on one line, but gave up.
