Using a false email address violates RFC 1036, for those who are 
bothered by such things (unless I'm wrong or out of date, which is 
entirely possible).  

In any case I don't find it necessary: in the last couple of years I've 
been using a real, free email address for my Usenet posts; it receives 
very little spam, but allows Usenet users to contact me without even 
having to de-munge.
