Is there any way to simulate an email harvester scanning my site and then see the results? I converted all the addresses to java
script many months ago but new SPAM still seems to be coming in. Is this method even effective or is there a better option or no
option that works? And before you suggest removing them, they do have to be there.

There's still the possibility that the spammers got your address months
ago and no amount of scripting will remove you from their lists or from
sharing it with others. The only way to stop that is to change the mail
account so mail is no longer deliverable to the old address.

I though about that too, changing the addresses is unfortunately not an option.

Then your only option may be to set up filters at your email account to
trash the spam on receiving. Try filtering out by sender address if it
seems to be generated from a common source, or using subject filters if
there are common subject words appearing in some or all of the spam.

Or send legitimate page generated mail to it's own folder (add a
?subject=keyword to your site's mailto: protocol and use the subject as
a filter in your mail program). That won't stop the spam but may help
you sort out the good from the bad.
