After years of training my family to use "U-C@D" to help identify where spam is coming from (because there's still an astonishing number of sites that refuse '+' as a valid email character), I realised I'd trapped myself into (probably) having to provide the email server forever because I've yet to find a hosted alternative that provides configurable/additional subaddseps.
- jntc 2y agoMigadu has a feature called "Pattern Rewrites" which would allow creating a wildcard rule to automatically redirect mails to "U-*@D" into a "U@D" mailbox.
- freetanga 2y agoDo you have your own domain? I use email alias (eg WifeLinkedin@domain.com ) with a single alias per site. I send all alias minus the 2-3 I care to a folder. Great to see who is leaking your address.
- roynasser 2y agoGeneral aliases are bad imho because it tends (in my experience) to attract spam... One way I get around that, is instead of aliasing @domain.com, I do .a@domain.com, so I use my emails when i subscribe ServiceName.a@domain.com good balance for me...
- zimpenfish 2y ago> Do you have your own domain? I do but "a single alias per site" only works for one person domains, not a domain shared over a bunch of family members.
- Tepix 2y agoExactly! Let me know if you manage to find one!
- hperrin 2y agoI run a service called Port87 that supports using the dash (-) for this purpose. I'm working on adding custom domain support. I know what you mean about sites that don't accept it. Microsoft even has the gall to call it an "invalid address" when you use a plus.
