It's obvious you don't submit freesites.
First off, every linklist that I have submitted to -- which used to be a very great amount -- always has a line that says something to the equivalient of, 'your page is listed at my discretion', and most go further and say they may just not list a site if it is unattractive or they are in a bad mood.
Secondly, I can't off hand think of any linklist owners that don't check for a protected whois and would still list a site with a protected whois without having any knowledge about the submitter prior to his first submission. <- See I left in the possiblity of an exception.

And as your 'submit' email address cannot really use any spam filtering (because many 'confirm' emails contain words that will triggers spam filters) you most definitely don't want that to happen.

Jigga-what? This is absurd. I can gaurentee you that my submission email address has never received any SPAM whatsoever. But maybe that was just because of my reluctance to submit to eastern block linklists.
