I want a bulletproof way to give email sub-addresses, since some websites strip out special characters like + and .. I have an idea for how it could work, let’s say my email is TheTwelveYearOld@Reddit.com and I have the following:
- All emails sent to TheTwelveYearOld@ get blocked
- I specify a suffix that would be used instead of
+, perhaps “From” - I whitelist phrases that go after “From”: TheTwelveYearOldFromDoorDash, TheTwelveYearOldFromGoogle, TheTwelveYearOldFromReddit
Are there any services that can do this? I’m thinking I should make my own domain for emails that way my email addresses aren’t tied to any companies and I can easily switch.

If you’re already doing your own domain, why not use something like anonaddy? That can.be selfhosted as well.
It’s renamed to addy.io but you should still find it as AnonAddy
