You don't have to use GMail. Calling a free email service "incompetent" and threatening liability action when the email addresses work exactly as described in the documentation seems a bit unhinged.
I've had a GMail account since it was in beta (2003). My email address is by now all over the web. I don't experience the level of spam or mis-addressed emails you describe, nor do I experience the degree of frustration you communicate.
You can handle the problems you describe with filters.
- rcarmo 4y agoJust because it is documented to work differently from every single other MTA does not mean it is "right" - free or otherwise (and one of the accounts I have this issue on is a business account, not just "free workplace"). I get 10 mis-addressed pieces of e-mail a week _at least_, and that is just not right, either - it's just simpler to leave, but I do not have the option to do that in one case.
- gregjor 4y agoI'd find a better hill to die on, personally. In the big list of things I find annoying mis-addressed emails don't get close to the top.
