    Hi,

    I am looking for a plugin that will encrypt mailto links automatically when I compose a new post

    What I want to do is make the mailto unreachable to robots, but visible to humans.

    Does a plugin for this currently exist?

    Thanks in advance,

    hm.. I don't know of a plugin that does that exactly. But, kind of on the subject...

    Instead of using mailto links, I just use contact forms with the plugin WP-ContactForm. I hate mailto links because I use firefox and gmail, and opening up an email address in outlook is just a hassle. Contact forms are the way to go, and WP-ContactForm is really easy to use and secure. Consider it.

    Hi, thanks for the response. The reason I was asking is that sometimes you have to mention someone's email address e.g. of a company.

    I found a solution to the problem. The wordpress plugin is called EmailShroud.
