I would ask on the apple forums.. in fact a quick search there, will probably answer your question faster than here..

they have a solution for this problem.. you can set up to 4 email aliases at a time in your mail preferences on the .Mac website). Just create a new email alias every so often, and use those for signing up for stuff that will attract spam....and keep your main address more secret...
I don't think you can change your main address as it is your account username...but you could always sign up again with a new member name/email if thats what you really want to do?

thanks for the replies and at the risk of sounding ungrateful - you tell me what I already know - what I want to know is can you change the main addy or not
..that does sound pompus doesn't it - but I am bored of this

I want to change my .Mac member name
Because your .Mac member name is used for your email address, iDisk, web pages, and other .Mac services, it is not possible to simply change your .Mac member name. If you want to use another email address, you can create an alias, and give that alias out to others as your email address. If you want a different .Mac member name and you recently created or renewed your account, the .Mac Support Team can assist you in canceling your current .Mac account. Prior to contacting the .Mac Support team, create a trial account with your .Mac member name, and be sure to provide:
• Your new .Mac member name
• Your birth day and month
• The answer to your password question
• An alternate email address at which you can be contacted
