When your going to school to become a Web Design & Developer and you see something like this: "E-mail him at southernfriedscientist at gmail dot com", you just have to laugh!
"southernfriedscientist at gmail dot com" like really?
This is the dumbest internet communication I have ever seen!!!!!! Maybe southernfriedscientist@gmail.com would make a lot more sense and be easier to type wouldn't you say?
This is simply horrible! Shame on them and shame on whoever built their website!

They write the email address like that to prevent automated spamming from occurring. People on craigslist do the same thing.

I don't buy that, every major blog and professional organization use <a href=""mailto:joe@someplace">joe@someplace.com</a>" for contact code on their websites. Most spam email bots gather their clients from databases via injections and/or other malicious tactics. Once you post your email on any public website expect to get spams. That's why email providers have spam filters. Gmail blocks spams by collaborative user interaction. Also this method doesn't protect you from being spammed. I could just write a program that scans words by using if and/or else statements and find those emails and then execute a compiler to reconstruct the email into a working format.

...just when i thought that i'm the single IT minded in the shark-club i read the previous post.
x2 to that! Depending on the circumstances, a picture with the e-mail address (not as link) works at best against bots, although manual submission - still pass though, but then the second layer kicks in - the provider's email spam system - in whichever way is that designed to work.
Man made stuff, can be man made broken through. At one point.
I LET THEM HAVE IT.
