That's bad too. It makes the archives next to useless, IMHO.

I second that: this is about as useful as anonymization on eBay. My first hand 
knowledge of that is: it hinders business.

Here, it will hinder day to day activities. I don't know what good it's for, 
as it's not the correct place to fix the spam problem.
