I'm suggesting that for the forum to be on a level playing feild with the 
mailing list, forum users should have the same level of disclosure as the 
mailing list and no less as a minimum.

It's not possible on a forum, either.  If you can demunge it, spammers will, 
too, eventually.  It's a minor inconvenience for them, not the every-time 
inconvenience for humans.  There's no form of munging that does not 
annoyingly hinder legitimate use while doing less than nothing to combat the 
real problem.  Munging is not a solution, it's part of the problem.
