You never use the bare address. If it gets stripped then it gets binned.


Works well until you encounter a service that thinks you can't have pluses in emails


What do 'bare address', 'stripped', and 'binned' mean in this context?


I don't agree with him, but he means you never use the email address without a "+service" in it.

Then, if the spammer strips (removes) that part, it gets sent to the trash (binned).
