email-addresses

Let's say I have a large website which may have a number of email addresses on it that are getting picked up by spammers. I plan to obfuscate or remove them all.

What's the easiest way to crawl my website to find any email addresses I may be exposing?

Either through on-page text (which Google can pick up, but not very well) or mailto: links (which Google can't).

I know it is probably not necessary to paste the whole path, but just for the record I have done so below. Whenever I run a python command, it takes a long time to load this path I suppose. I have checked in .bash_profile and only have these two lines: export PATH=/Users/username/bin:/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python… >>> More
