  Email Address Harvesting: How Spammers Reap What You Sow   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
The investigators indicate that email address harvesting usually is automated, because spam can hit the addresses soon after they are used publicly the first time; the spam was not targeted; and some addresses were picked up off web pages even when they weren't visible to the eye.
For example, if your email address is "johndoe@myisp.com," you could mask it as "johndoe@spamaway.myisp.com." Be aware that some newsgroup services or message boards won't allow you to mask your email address and some harvesting programs may be able to pick out common masks.
Often the email address is abuse@yourispname.com or postmaster@yourispname.com.
