I don't know why you said that. Gmail addresses can't have +'s in them https://support.google.com/mail/answer/12096?hl=en https://support.google.com/mail/answ

everything I wrote applies only and specifically to gmail. it would be trivial to strip the +'s from every gmail address to get right into the person's main inbox.
If I don't trust a person to stop spamming me or sell my email address then I'm not going to trust a person not to do that.
- joshmanders 11y ago> I don't know why you said that. Gmail addresses can't have +'s in them I was saying that regarding to automatically stripping out +string from the email to thwart this. Gmail uses them as a special character, but it is a valid email character, along with all these http://stackoverflow.com/a/2049510 http://stackoverflow.com/a/2049510
- logicallee 11y agoAll right, but I was referring to automatically stripping out +string from emails at gmail's domain (which loads of people use, including me.) So we're talking past each other and it's not a valid reason why gmail shouldn't implement this. but thanks.
- joshmanders 11y agoAh, I see. Yeah on @gmail I see what you're talking about. I was thinking a regex on just the username of the email to remove +word
