I've used sneakemail for a number of years. With their paid account ($12/yr, I think), it lets you create emails on the fly with a specific pattern.
For example:
amazon-flanbiscuit@sneakemail.com
That gets forwarded to your actual email address, and you can see how it was tagged. If needed, you can whitelist/blacklist specific senders from specific tags as well.
- FreezerburnV 13y agoNever heard of them before. Do they have any benefit over Spam Gourmet? (which I use occasionally, and is free)
- reverend_gonzo 13y agoI've never heard of Spam Gourmet. I've been using Sneakemail for the past 10-15 years. Since it's so cheap, and it's worked well enough, I just haven't bothered looking at anything else.
- a124556 13y agoWith any standards compliant email server you can use "+whatever" in the username and the email should get to you: username+whatever@example.com.
- wpietri 13y agoI believe that totally depends on the mail server. If there is an actual standard for that, please do point me to it.
- jlgaddis 13y ago"+" is valid in the left-hand side portion and Postfix uses it (by default) as the separator to provide this feature but other mail systems (Qmail and, IIRC, Courier) use "-". That functionality is not an RFC requirement, however.
