Nick HeerI know, I know, but it’s still funny to me.
Donncha Ó Caoimh@nickheer haha, love it. I give a different address to each of them. Useful to track who spams me or who gets hacked.

Lippe@diekenbrock @donncha @nickheer Same here! Especially when talking to someone not that tech-savvy who then thinks I work at the same company...
Niclas@diekenbrock @donncha @nickheer SimpleLogin will always generate mails with the company name in it :). Though I haven't had the fun of actually telling some customer support about it. The day will come.
@n1cl4s @donncha @nickheer It is really fun, especially if they think that because of the email, you're an employee of that company as well.
Almost as fun as reading out a 32 character random passwort to customer support to identify a login problem. They were able to see the password in clear text (yes I know, long time ago...) and when they saw the password I just heard "Oh Gott".
It turned out, their registration accepted 32 character, but the login truncated after 30 characters. But that's a different story.
@diekenbrock @donncha @nickheer I have recently read something about some site truncating passwords longer than 16 digits. I'm not sure, though, what site that was.
🇪🇺 Paul Schoonhoven 🍋🍉@diekenbrock @donncha the funny thing is that I don't get spammed on those 'special emailadresses'. Only soms general addresses I use for many years now. (and don't use much anymore)

Mayank Gupta@diekenbrock @donncha @nickheer I do the same most of the time. I need to do it more often though.
Duck.com email addresses or using wildcard emails is a wonderful solution.
