I was trying to find an email address of someone so I did a Google search for [his name] + email. A page in in the SERPs showed his email address naked. I clicked it to confirm the context of the address. The actual content was a munged email address.

This is a test to see if/how Google unmunges email addresses.

spam[@]gmail[.]com
spam[at]gmail[dot]com
spam at gmail
spam at gmail dot com
spam [at] gmail [dot] com

Edit: Nope. Apparently, this translation does not happen. They just must have changed the page.
