Genuinly curious: does '+' trick work? I would imagine any infringing parties would learn to remove plus sign and all after it before selling the database of addresses by now... Other than that: true, I hate incorrect validation. But I hate sloppy security practices even more.

Not as much as it used to. You're right, they've caught on to it. I need to stand up another mail server pretty soon, I want to try making it easy to generate random recipient aliases, so e.g. qti3XZ@mydomain.com is an alias for rob+someservice@mydomain.com and gdUTgp@mydomain.com is an alias for rob+otherservice@mydomain.com. That oughtta stump 'em for a while.
