Someone else brought up the point in repsonse to my
suggested use of something like the HiveWare encoder
(http://www.hiveware.com/enkoder_form.php) that any
encoding method could be decoded by harvesters.  

To help prevent that I would think that one would need
to obscure in some fashion the fact that the encoding
is there at all.  This may help prevent harvesting
software from searching for a certain string that
identifies a 'Drupal-encoded' email address.  A
readily identified string would actually make it
easier for harvesters to find the email.  Whether they
could decode it after that is another matter.
