The spambots might become inefficient, but I doubt it would have a
noticeable affect on spam at all. Very little of the spam I get is from
addresses scraped off websites. The #1 is from addresses used for domain
registration. #2 is from an address used for newsgroup posting. #3 is my
regular personal account, which I've had for many years. That one got
significantly worse after the latest viruses started spreading it
willy-nilly. #4 are standard "role" accounts (webmaster@). Addresses posted
on my websites are well below any of these.
