Interestingly I cannot remember having felt the need for C++ like call 
by reference (which is what you probably have in mind).  I suspect the 
reason is in the way I try to design OO applications.  With a proper 
concept of classes with local state (which can then be changed) your 
problem might be solved differently.  If you provide a bit more detail 
about what it is that you are trying to achieve then we might be able to 
come up with other suggestions.

Please do not shout.  Nowadays everybody must be aware that every email 
address you use in public is highly likely to be targeted by spam 
eventually.  Unfortunately there is no way to undo the leakage of an 
email address so you better use a spam friendly address upfront.

Kind regards
