On page http://www.t1dbase.org/page/HelpPopup/?topic=captcha the t1dbase-feedback email address is visible. In the underlying code the '@; is substituted for the html code equivalent. Perhaps this is one source of where out spam is coming from ? I assume that the new rules that Vin has set up prevent people from using this anyway so I suggest that we remove it (and any other references like this on the site).

Need to grep for string [% help_email.replace('@', '@') %] or even mailto ?
