- don't train AI on my mails
- don't sell my data to advertisers.
- protect my data from overzealous law enforcement
Right now, I'm running my own mail server on a dedicated machine. I wouldn't mind getting rid of it. One feature i need is a configurable sub-adressing separator (not just "+").
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.
Great to see who is leaking your address.
good balance for me...
I do but "a single alias per site" only works for one person domains, not a domain shared over a bunch of family members.
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.
If you use postfix & dovecot, the setting that might help you is recipient_delimiter
