With sendmail, used "plussed" addresses; with exim, similar but you can
define just exactly how it works: see local_part_suffix etc. in the spec.

It means that I can use localpart+extrabit@??? and can make up the
extrabit any time I like, and don't have to accept everything@???.
For example you can reach me on
john.robinson+anything.I.like.here@??? and I'll get it, but
I might later decide to ditch everything sent to that version of my address.

With exim I also use - as well as + because so many sites are broken and
don't accept the (perfectly valid) +

Cheers,

John.
