Luis, I totally agree on the Spam issue. If I understand it correctly,
there are two options gmane offers:
* standard protection: this will obfuscate the mail address in the web
  interface, but the news service they offer will contain the plain text
  addressess (as it usually is in usenet)
* total encryption: all email addresses will be encrypted and will go
  over the gmane server, being filtered there and all who sustain the
  filter, will still get a response in which they have to click a link
  to get their (private) mail through to you.

See also http://gmane.org/tmda.php on the second option.
