I do know a program you can download at a free perls script site that will allow you to do what you want. I strongly suggest hardcoding the email. But the program offers max post limits. So if you limit the spammers to a few posts a day or a week it will still give you some protection. It also has a captcha verification, so that helps with automated attacks. You can decide how to run it, but the program and instructions are at http://bumblebeeware.com/formmail/
