Here's a roll-your-own alternative: use an embedded Google form and style it to fit your website's theme. That's what I do at http://www.brianchu.com http://www.brianchu.com (Contact Me button at the left). Works like a charm and I get an email notification every time someone submits the form.
A contact form is superior to publicly displaying an email address because 1) if you think about it as a conversion funnel, that's one less step for the person to reach out to you, and 2) a contact form makes it really clear that you're open to being contacted; some people are hesitant to email you out of the blue.
