- c22 4y agoWhereas if you block ABC outright you'll just have pissed off people who aren't customers!
- mgkimsal 4y agoSure, but that's a different story. You might piss them off and lose customers. You may also be knowingly increasing your support costs. For the average company trying to navigate these sorts of decisions, supporting users with emails like "a$123@1-2-3.12397.museum" probably isn't high on their list of priorities, regardless of whether it's "valid" or not.
- roflyear 4y agoYeah not really talking about those addresses tho. Plenty of sites reject stuff like hi+whatever@whatever.com which is not super uncommon...
