Now the link won't work but you can read (!) the address. So any 
harveter that looks for "(at)" is not turned away by the TYPO3 protection.

I'm just thinking loud what I would do if I were an address harvester. 
If I had the processing power I might try to render the page and parse 
the code via DOM. Anyway I wouldn't look for mailto links but for "@" 
and its variants like "(at)".
