Expedia developers don't know about RFC
TL;DR: Apparently, Expedia can't handle «+» in email addresses.
Few month ago I used Expedia service to book hotel and used my email with «+expedia» tag, as I usually do, helps a lot with filtering. But with Expedia «+» breaks everything. It is few month already I can't unsubscribe from their spam. Two calls to support, «deactivation» of my account, but still I receive their ads. Funny thing is that «unsubscribe» link doesn't work. To unsubscribe I need to log into my account, which is deactivated. I could send all mail with «+expedia» to /dev/null, but seriously, WTF?
- stevegoober 11y agoHN is not the right medium for this complaint.
- anotheristaken 11y agoI'm not complaining.
- dozzie 11y agoWhat makes you think you'd have any different experience if your e-mail address did not contain "+" character?
- anotheristaken 11y agoMy sincere belief that developers know what they're doing at least half of the time.
