The Smarter Userlink plugin can be used in place of the <%userlink%> template variable for comments. It obfuscates commentor's email addresses to avoid spammers gathering email addresses from your comments. There is an option to not display email addresses at all, as well.
This plugin currently supports Nucleus version 2.0 and above.

See “SkinVars and TemplateVars” and “Options” below. Refer to the README file for detailed usage instructions.
In the appropriate templates, insert the tag <%SmarterUserlink%> instead of <%userlink%>.
URLs will convert the username into links just as before. Email addresses will be obfuscated and displayed next to the username: “username - user (at) domain (dot) com”.
From the plugin page, click “edit options” on the Smarter Userlink plugin.
There is an option to display email addresses with comments or not. When set to 'yes', all email addresses will be displayed as: “user (at) domain (dot) com”, which email harvesters will not recognize as an email address and thus not harvest.
When set to 'no', obviously no email addresses are displayed next to the comments.
You can control the look of the username as well as the email address with CSS. Add definitions for these CSS classes to your stylesheet:
'su-user' = SPAN around the username 'su-email = SPAN around the email address
