We used to expose the raw email address of the underlying user. Now it's a two-way email proxy, which is why the domain is "Floors.me" e.g. rich.farmey.31719@42floors.me
We do get spammed but we've been able to keep a handle on it. Mailgun's filters capture most of the spam and we have backup handlers in place to address the rest.
Do users know who they're emailing with the anonymous addresses? The username@42floors.me address may look like they have to communicate via 42floors (meaning more friction) instead of directly with the manager. Craigslist emails are more obviously throw aways.
