It is one of the most common and popular measure we all take in order to protect our mail ids from spammers. We do not simply write our mail ids as it is on any web pages. We usually write mymail [at] mydomain [dot] com or any similar way so as to protect our mail ids from spammer bots.
The above format does not "look" nice for human visitors. It looks like a normal text or even few newbies may not understand it a mail id. In order to overcome this negative impact and to make it "look" more impressive, we can make use of e-mail icons. Just have a look at the images of email icons below and tell me how appealing it would be rather than above format?
You don’t need to be an expert in image editing, its very simple. There are many online apps for this which does all the work for you instantly. The most popular one among these is from Nexodyne which supports AOL, ATT, BellSouth, Bigfoot, Blueyonder, Comcast, Cox, Earthlink, GMail, Hotmail, Live, Lycos, MSN, Mac, Netscape, QQ, RocketMail, Rogers, SBCGlobal, Sina, Spymac, Sympatico, Vip.Sina, Verizon and Yahoo mails. Apart from these, you can also generate icons of your corporate / domain mail id which will look like a simple text.

this looks nice… and the custom design would probably make it hard for bots to parse it…
