The more you obfuscate, the more inaccessible/less usable the email link
becomes. And since there's no guaranteed way to truly obfuscate it, your
best (and, actually, easiest) option is to simply have each 'contact
link' link to a contact form. That contact form can then take the USERID
passed to it from the contact link and route the message to the
appropriate email address on the server-side.

This is what we're going to be doing on our new site launch. Granted,
part of our decision is political, in that many people just do not want
their address exposed at all to the general public (as there are valid
issue in terms of people that aren't necessarily spammers, but use email
to harrass employees).

So, in otherwords, they are correct in that you should use the contact
form, and if you want, you can customize the contact form to handle the
routing for you as well.
