This has absolutely nothing to do with how much spam you get. Spammers send thousands of emails every hour, trust me they definitely do not use this script and punch in everyones address one at a time.
If your email address is "out there" you will get spammed no different then if this script didn't exist.
You say you get spammed with several thousand emails per week, sorry but this just means you have been negligent handling your own email address by signing up to shady organizations, by making accounts at sites, replying to funny mass forwarded emails that develops a ton of addys at the top, printing your address on webpages for harvesters, having a default address such as
webmaster@yourdomain.com and otherwise very poor mail filtering configuration on your local machine and/or server.
I run over 100 websites, nearly all have a contact form plus these websites have ranked for terms highly targeted by harvesters such as TareeInternet ranking #4 for the term "SEO" on Google.com
How many spam do i get per day? It averages 5 that make it through, and the ones that do make it through get forwarded to SpamCop and blocked.
So if you are having these problems, it's nothing to do with the script. These people need to know your address to be able to spam you, when they have it they won't use this.
