Maybe the spammers will now recognise and harvest "a at b.org" ?
So far they don't seem to try to defeat the trivial mangling mailman performs. I'm guessing it's because techies use mailing lists and thus have strong spam filters installed - therefore there's no return on spamming them. And even though there's little cost to spamming, there is the logistical cost of spamming people with zero chance of return (you could be spamming others instead with the same bandwidth).
