what is your idea of a well-established standard?

It's clear from your other comments that you prefer to be disingenuous and ask ignorant questions as opposed to actually advancing the discussion forward. No matter what I say, you will move your goalposts. Taking this further would be a waste of time.

  no one ever advanced a discussion with a righteous diatribe criticising the questions they're being asked if you don't want to define your terms or back up your claims with evidence, don't say them in the first place. don't start insulting people and demanding action from them when they ask for that evidence or want you to elaborate

    Pointing out your ignorance and disingenuity is not a "righteous diatribe". If you are insulted over how people are responding to these frankly ridiculous comments of yours, that's your problem. No one is required to take you seriously.

      yes I'm sorry, I was wrong, it certainly wasn't a righteous diatribe, it was just an emotional screed about how right you are and how ignorant I am stay advancing the discussion my friend. keep accusing anyone you disagree with of being ignorant and disingenuous, that's healthy for the debate

as sibling wrote, you do not deserve a response to show just how disingenuous you're being here is the current wikipedia section on sub-addressing: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Email_address&oldid=1165990339#Sub-addressing https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Email_address&old...

  you're being disingenuous in your use of the word disingenuous. disingenuous is when you say something you don't mean. I don't think that's what you think. I think you disagree strongly with my opinion. my opinion may well be wrong, but it would only be disingenuous if I didn't believe it it is a less-commonly implemented feature of email addresses. whether it's possible or not, as shown in your link, is beside the point. as I illustrated, there are plenty of possible features of email that are not commonly implemented, and I've also linked to Hacker News posts of people complaining that the + sign is not implemented in enough websites. what more evidence do you need? it's very clearly not even remotely a universal standard, even as shown in the link you just listed: >Some mail services support

    nah, i really did meant disingenuous, but you are correct it is not my place to postulate on what you think or know. i apologize. you are also correct that i do not agree with you opinion; it is a well established 'standard' you're pointing out people complain that web forms don't support it but that is not an issue with the providers, just the implementation of those forms(or their backends)
