    Before and after Covid I have no intention to talk to masked and
    anonymous people.


    Well why don't you STFU then?
    You have no way of knowing who here is using their real name, or even if
    they have a real name. Many people have more than one name they commonly
    use.

    As for publishing a real email address, you must be bonkers. I have
    enough spam as it is.

    Just to add a data point to this more and more ridiculous off-topic meta discussion, for Usenet purpose only, email address in my From: header,
    as well as in my .signature, is quite real and working. I cannot
    remember the last time, if ever at all, I received spam email at that address. Lucky? Maybe.

    And to add another data point: I get a few spam messages per day
    at the real, live email address in my signature. Until recently,
    I used my email service provider's spam filter to get rid of the
    repeat offenders but switched to a home-grown filter program
    after I got blasted with several per day from random-ish invalid
    domain names. Having "spamtrap" in the name field seems to help.

    After many years I've discovered that those complaining about a non de
    plume vs a real name, and esp a working email address, are only trolls
    looking for info to allow harassing the poster via other means.
