IMO, very optimistic. Basic probabilty says your supposedly well hidden
address will be exposed sooner rather than later. All that's needed is
for one of your Windows using friends computer to catch a virus and spew
out it's address book to the world.

Bob's sneakmail solution is OK, but more trouble than it's worth to me.

Like I said, if just the known spam and viruses were rejected by your ISPs
server, the spam load would drop by better than 90%.

Regards,

Steven
