Poppycock. There are plenty of mailing list archives out there
that make /some/ effort to prevent harvesting of the email addresses.
Most of them do something as simple as changing email addresses
found to (greg "at" turnstep.com) or something similar. Even
if ALE's current system does not support it (and if it does not,
perhaps it is time to upgrade), you could certainly hack the source,
or even write a simple perl script that periodically cleanses the
archives, independent of the mailing list software.

Compare, for example:
