Google Gmail Power Tips from ExtremeTech
October 3rd, 2005 by alpriest
One of the few pages from a set of Gmail power tips, this page shows you how to use Plus Addressing. Essentially it lets you have many email addresses based on your single gmail one, and then filter/block them at will. i.e. you don’t have to give out your real email address to companies. Of course, there are very obvious ways around it for a spammer, but it’s marginally better than giving out your normal address.
