Uhm, not quite. markmail doesn't (where most/all kde lists are
mirrored), pgpkeys doesn't, bugs.debian.org doesn't either. And thats
just from the first page of googling your mail address. BTW: Google also
finds lists.kde.org when searching for your email adress, i.e. it
already recognizes () and !. Or the debian archives.

Personally I simply don't care anymore, I'm getting quite a bit of spam
every day, but luckily my spam filters are still good enough to filter
out >95% of it. In fact I'd say that I don't believe in obfuscation at
all, it simply doesn't help fighting the spam (at least from my
experience).
