Spammers do some pretty awful things, but I haven't yet heard of them
snooping other people's IP connections. At least in the US, that
would constitute an illegal wiretap and be a felony. I think users
will generally be much more concerned about your site releasing
(e.g. selling) their addresses to spammers, than they are concerned
about spammers intercepting the addresses in transit.
