This is one of the very least likely ways one's address will be disclosed.
First there are all the directory harvest attacks, dictionary attacks, etc,
and so forth.
Not to mention a lot of others like sending 'majordomo' a which @ command
which frequently dumps the entire list of everyone on every list the damn
thing is handling (matching the @ obviously hits everybody)...
Right now the best bargain in despamming is probably Postini - only 50 US
cents per user per month, and it actually does work well. Those who could
use a litle despamming help can have your ISP contact them..
