[ale] hashing identd

[PhReAk!]

This idea resulted from a recent discussion on spam. I has become apparent
to me that a lot of the spam I am getting is coming from web pages that I
have hit. They are getting my email address via identd. I don't want to
turn identd off because I had problems a few years back with people
hacking from my box and I have been forced to provide an audit trial or
accept responsibility for what happened myself. However, I don't want my
email address floating with me everywhere I go on the net. So, why not
have identd return a SHA or MD5 hash of my username as opposed to the
raw data. The hash cannot be used for spam. However, if there is a problem
the sys admin of the relevant system could check the given hash value
against the hashes of all the users in /etc/password in order to obtain
the culprit's True Name. Identd could be upgraded for this in about 5
minutes of programming. However, I have no idea who maintains it. Does
anyone know who to contact about this?
