I did that with my Earthlink email address after it started collecting spam around a year or so ago. I changed it to something not easily discoverable through dictionary attacks, and then only gave it out to those I absolutely trusted not to spam me.
When I signed up for ComcastHSI, I used the same name there as well. Since I'm still using my old Earthlink email address, I haven't given out the Comcast one to anybody yet.
Neither address will never be used on Usenet. That is the single biggest source of harvestable addresses for spammers, and even munging your address on there isn't foolproof. -- "Kayura or Badamon, whichever you are, you should know that I will never give up this battle.
