Can you provide an alternative that doesn’t involve my contact form getting spammed to hell with crap?

I have my email address listed in plain text on my website and with a simple regular expression to to reject the standard pharma/bitcount/etc. spams at the SMTP level based on subject there is at most a couple of spam emails pair day. Hardly takes any time to go through that.

Use the recaptcha after form submission only, rather than on the whole website. Then at least the user is incentivised to do it as a last step of a process, as opposed to being stopped in their tracks before they even got to visit the website.
