It is important to note that Drupal core and it's Contact module do not provide any kind of spam prevention and could open up your site to lots of spam e-mail attemps if anonymous users can use the contact forms.

The good news is there are lots of good spam-prevention modules that easily integrate and protect the contact forms and other forms (like comments, nodes, etc).
