- eli 13y agoActually it would help you here. In this case your real address isn't exposed unless someone guessed the exact version you used to sign up.
- jonknee 13y agoWhat do you mean? If joeblow+coinbase@gmail.com is in the leaked list you know that that joeblow@gmail.com is the "real" user and also is someone who has BTC.
- eli 13y agoThere was no leak. The API allowed you to see whether a given email had an account associated, so someone churned through a big list of known email addresses to find accounts.
- ttty 13y agoIf you do a filter like this: All mail that arrives to john.s.m.i.t.h@gmail.com is important. Everything else is spam. Of course you might not get emails from people who sends emails to john.smith@gmail.com nor johnsmith@gmail.com because the emails go to spam.
