Sorry, I just don't agree with that. I've posted in the newsgroups for
almost a decade using my real name and email address, with very few
problems
outside this newsgroup. Since the modified email address virtually
eliminates spam, this one newsgroup alone continues to be the main source
of
problems. And it's not due to anything I've posted here. I don't think
I've
posted anything in this newsgroup in almost three years and perhaps only
posted a handful of messages per year prior to that. Instead, the problems
are caused by others repeatedly posting my name in this newsgroup in
association with stuff I'm not even aware of until I eventually hear about
it in my email. As such, I would probably experience the same problems
even
I never posted to the newsgroups (using any email address - real or fake).

If your not going to protect yourself with the simplest of measures, then
you can expect to continue recieving crap. Anyone with common sense knows
you don't go slumming without a condom.
