Unfortunately, MailVeil is no longer available.
- MailVeil protects your email address from being picked up by spammers
- Uses a Flash movie to show and link your address for visitors but not harvesting robots
- The design is flexible, and MailVeil can protect all addresses on a site automatically
- MailVeil conceals your address from all browsers and devices lacking Flash
- Spammers may adapt and educate their robots to decipher Flash files
- MailVeil conceals email addresses on web sites by replacing them with Flash animations.
- The MailVeil Flash files look and work like vanilla addresses with mailto: links.
- You can encode one address, a domain or have MailVeil replace all addresses on a site automatically.
- In addition to enclosing the address in a Flash file, MailVeil encodes it for further protection.
So posting your email address anywhere on the web (be it on your site or a forum, for example) is dangerous, but it also very useful and often necessary. How to make visitors see your email address (and let a click on it create an email addressed to you) while all the harvesting robots see is code?
MailVeil has a clever answer: Flash. Instead of your email address you use a small Flash animation that looks and acts like your email address but really is just code, at least to spammers. It's easy to encode a single address this way, but you can even have MailVeil replace all addresses on your site with such Flash movies automatically.
The only major downside to MailVeil that email addresses encoded with MailVeil really don't work for people using text browsers or devices that don't support Flash. Fortunately, there aren't many. Of course, spammers may one day and against the odds adapt and learn to read swf files with their robots.
