I agree.  I seem to recall a previous run in with this outfit over some 
other stupid requirement.

The vendor provides school "portal" solutions.  Their suggestion to 
obscure email addresses instead of "user at domain.tld" is to use <a href="
mailto:user at domain.tld">User Name's email.</a> so I don't have great 
expectations of them.
