It's even more rude to use munged addresses.

See:

<http://www.interhack.net/pubs/munging-harmful/>
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Address_munging>
<https://woozle.org/~neale/papers/reply-to-still-harmful.html>

Spam is something we all have to deal with and address munging instead
of a working spam filter just dumps the problem to others who will then
get the NDRs caused by the invalid address etc..

BTW: usenet@arnowelzel.de is valid and will be read. And spam to this
address is way less than to other addresses I don't use for usenet postings.

Nice idea.
