    Here is a suggestion. List the email address of
the list on the website as 
 
extropy-chat<at>lists.extropy.org

If anyone reading can't figure it out, they probably
aren't smart enough to be worth having on the list.
And it should confuse the agents that spammers have
scavenging email addresses off of every inch of
webspace. It will probably work until the spammers
figure out how to make their webcrawlers parse it to
an actual email address. Sure the newbies will have to
manually type it into their address books (or
cut-edit-paste) but hey the list is free and it isn't
that much work anyways. Hope that helps.
