I get a good deal of spam from any unfiltered accounts I post as name@domain.com. In fact the only Nigerian scams I ever received came from doing that. name[AT]domain.com is an easy way to prevent some of that for someone (e.g. a non-technical person doing a blog) without the javascript obfuscation code handy, or else without the know-how to use it.
