    But many sites don’t support that, unfortunately.

    DHL for example will happily create an account for you with the “mail+xyz@gmail”, but will sometimes drop the suffix internally. You can’t reset your password for example. Super annoying.

      Yeah I’ve come across several websites that don’t let you use anything other than the usual suspects (@gmail.com, @yahoo.com, @live.com, etc.) but MOST of them let you use whatever you want.
