44<h2>Description</h2>
45
46<p>ADDRESSMODIFYCODE may be used to define Perl expressions to
47apply to addresses in message headers during conversion.
48</p>
49<p>When defining the expressions, the mail address will be in
50the <b><tt>$_</tt></b> variable. The value of <b><tt>$_</tt></b>
51after all expressions are evaluated is the address MHonArc will
52print.
53</p>
54<table border=0 cellpadding=4>
55<tr valign=top>
56<td><a name="note1"><strong>NOTE</strong></a></td>
57<td><p>ADDRESSMODIFYCODE only affects the display text of the
58address. If <a href="mailto.html">MAILTO</a> is active, the
59URL of the link is <b>NOT</b> affected by ADDRESSMODIFYCODE.
60<a href="mailtourl.html">MAILTOURL</a> can be used to modify the
61URL.

83<h2>Examples</h2>
84
85<p>ADDRESSMODIFYCODE main use is to obfuscate addresses,
86or hide them entirely, to
87prevent spam address harvesters from getting user addresses from
88MHonArc archives. Here is an example that performs a ROT13 to
89provide some simple obfuscation:
90</p>
91<pre>
92&lt;AddressModifyCode&gt;
93tr/A-Za-z/N-ZA-Mn-za-m/;
94&lt;/AddressModifyCode&gt;
95</pre>
96<p>However, this may not be enough since an intelligent harvester
97may try a ROT13. To completely hide the address, do something like
98this:
99</p>
100<pre>
101&lt;AddressModifyCode&gt;
102$_ = 'address@hidden';
103&lt;/AddressModifyCode&gt;
104</pre>
105<p>You cannot rely on ADDRESSMODIFYCODE alone to
106hide/obfuscate addresses (see <a href="#note1">NOTE</a> above).
107Also look at the <a href="spammode.html">SPAMMODE</a> if you are
108interested in fighting address harvesting.
