Any illegitimate email collection service already knows to strip out email subaddresses.

If you’re trying to avoid email spam, there’s not much difference in giving someone [e-mail] versus just [e-mail].

You could just use [e-mail] for the no-alias version. So myname+foo@ works and my.name@ works but myname@ goes directly to the trash.

That can also be normalized.

The normalised version is what gets redirected to trash, according to GP's proposal. Legitimate senders who do not normalise have their mail delivered to the inbox.

Yea, gotta take all dots out on the username portion of Gmail address

In which case the Gmail user knows to mark mail without any dots in the address as spam.

That's the version that goes directly to the trash.
