> I toyed with the idea of using a catch-all, but couldn't get around the problem of having to occasionally send mails from the address (e.g. for customer support, etc - as another commenter mentioned). You know, the sender header is just a text string... What stops you from putting whatever e-mail alias you registered with as sender, for those occasions? |

Cognitive load. I don't want to:
1. Think about it. 2. Figure out which email address goes with which To: field. 3. Find a way to automate all this.
In the end, my solution would be less work to get rid of unwanted emails than using a catch-all. Why should I do the extra work in maintaining the system, when the sender can do the tiny amount of extra work instead? More fundamentally, why should anyone feel they have the right to just insert anything into my inbox? I should control the inbox - not them.
