  Hello, I am wanting to put email addresses for certain contacts in my posts but do not want them revealed. ie I want people to be redirected to a contact form or see an alternative email address than the one the email is sent to. Is this possible.

  Try an outside service that gives you a link to insert into a post. Readers click on the link and access the secure contact from at the outside service.

  Thanks – will look into them a bit more.
  1 thought I had is a hosted email account which allows unlimited emails – you could create forwarding addresses for each email you want and destroy them afterwards – never having to reveal the original email.
