Are there any differerences between an email address munger, an email address encoder, and an email address encrypter?
Or mailto encoder, email address obfuscator, or email address disguiser, hider, masker, cloaker, distorter, concealer …. Absolutely nothing. Sometimes people might call one an email munger, email encoder, email encrypter, email obfuscator, etc. However, these names without the word “address” in them, might refer to the encoding of an actual email to be sent, versus the munging of the email address to be posted on a webpage. Some people don’t say “munge” (like “lunge”), they say “mung” (like “hung”). I actually looked up both words, and they both work. I even looked up some of the history of the words, and it’s not clear which came first. We here at AddressMunger.com say “munge”.
