| 44 | <h2>Description</h2> |
| 45 | |
| 46 | <p>ADDRESSMODIFYCODE may be used to define Perl expressions to |
| 47 | apply to addresses in message headers during conversion. |
| 48 | </p> |
| 49 | <p>When defining the expressions, the mail address will be in |
| 50 | the <b><tt>$_</tt></b> variable. The value of <b><tt>$_</tt></b> |
| 51 | after all expressions are evaluated is the address MHonArc will |
| 52 | print. |
| 53 | </p> |

| 57 | <td><p>ADDRESSMODIFYCODE only affects the display text of the |
| 58 | address. If <a href="mailto.html">MAILTO</a> is active, the |
| 59 | URL of the link is <b>NOT</b> affected by ADDRESSMODIFYCODE. |
| 60 | <a href="mailtourl.html">MAILTOURL</a> can be used to modify the |
| 61 | URL. |

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