For those who are considering aliases to reduce spam in this.

DO THIS TODAY. One of my aliases at the vendor Thermpro got compromised by them. I got list bombed pretty badly. Because it was an alias, I was able to turn it off. I got over 2k messages (Most of it "sign up for our mailinglist") within the first 12 hours. Reaching out to the vendor got nowhere. (Pretty sure they don't care that they were compromised)

Problem is most email provider web interface and mail agents don’t handle dealing with aliases correctly. For me I’ve found only Fastmail & mutt to be able to handle my 500 email aliases.
