I was thinking about inventing some special syntax for email addresses, so that "known" addresses are practically useless for spammers.
e.g.
address is: "myname@isp.com"
...and the current date is Mar 19th, 2007
But if someone wants to send me an email, he must use
myname_190307@isp.com
...because only THAT address will be valid on that day.
There are still millions of drawbacks on such an idea, and I know that this won't work with "strangers" or average users, but...
I'm posting it here in order not to forget it myself.
