TL;DR: Show us your authenticators as they stand now. What are you
looking up to determine if it's correct?

Basically, whatever auth test you are using now may only need to be
slightly adjusted to make it work. The auth module gets passed two
parameters: a username (which you are saying is user+extra@???)
and the password. So whatever test you have that authenticator
configured to do to verify that the user is correct needs to either
ignore or include parts of that username submission (depending on what
you have in your database...assuming you are authenticating against a
database).
