Just to add a bit to this, the pipermail archive in MM 2.1 consists of static HTML pages. The current archiver by default 'obscures' email addresses everywhere in the archived message, but only by replacing '@' by ' at '. This is for spam harvesting, not privacy, and is probably not very effective.
More secure obfuscation could be done but is problematic in that all addresses would be obfuscated, even those in the body meant to be public such as "send bug reports to <email address hidden>", and the obfuscation would necessarily be irreversable because of the static nature of the pages, i.e. everyone, authenticated or not, would see the same obfuscated address.
