Spam sucks, but I've been posting to usenet with my real unmunged email address since 1981 and my inbox remains entirely usable. The idea that the way to avoid spam is to hide from spammers is so 1990s.
I've been posting to Usenet with my real *cell phone number* in my sig, not to mention a dozen mailing lists. You know how many unsolicited phone calls I've gotten in 29 years? Maybe as many as a dozen. Cheers, -- jra -- Jay R.
