It's tough to avoid all spam or unsolicited email. As soon as you sign up to a forum or website, your email address is potentially available to spammers to use. Spam is a pain. We hate it and we really try to discourage it :) At Hosting NZ, we don't give away your addresses or sell them. We encourage our customers not to post their email addresses on the site in text format. SpamBots can easily troll your site and find your email address. If you want to display an email on your site, turn it into a graphic image or use a masking tool like Enkoder.
