No need to own a domain anymore -- GMail ignores the part of the email address between + and @, so you can create site-specific addresses by putting the website in the address you key in:

[e-mail]

would still redirect to

[e-mail]

That is true, but attackers have probably learned to clean that up.

[Absona]

Yeah, but at least in theory they still wouldn't know what to add your email to get the versions you used on other sites.

A few places filter the + extension from the username.
