What kind of world do we live in where using a free service and agreeing to explicitly documented T&Cs doesn’t constitute acceptance? “You provided a contract, and I agreed even though I chose not to read it (despite you providing it), and used the service, but I didn’t really mean to agree” is the most ridiculous cop-out, in my view.

Firstly a Contract is a Meeting of Minds, the forty pages of small type in a PDF are nice, but it's laughable that you pretend you thought everybody read those before using your free service. And if they didn't read them, they clearly cannot agree with just every random term you threw in there and so it can't all be part of that meeting of minds, so there is not, in fact, a contract with people with those terms. OK,…

Fastmail supports this natively (and is awesome). You can do service@user.yourdomain.com and it will get delivered to user+service@yourdomain.com.

You can use the + trick and . trick with Gmail addresses too. I think Outlook as well supports the + trick. The only downside to this is that there are plenty of sites that don't accept a + either knowingly or unknowingly.

Same, for me it was them and Apollo. I can't find anything about either of them in my mail, but both claim to have notified their customers. That's very suspicious. I don't delete anything... Perhaps it found its way into my spam and got auto-deleted (entirely possible with Apollo, seems very unlikely with MFP).

Also got mine leaked from FitnessPal and Apollo and them only. No idea what Apollo is or how they got my stuff. Any idea what it is? A link to each service's website would be awesome in the breach report on FireFox Monitor.

Yes, it's in the SMTP RFC.

It's not.

I think most MTAs support +. Isn't that part of the e-mail standard?

It is, but many services will (incorrectly) prevent an address with a `+` in it from ever making it to their database/whatever. So the fact that the MTA will route it is irrelevant if it never makes it to the MTA in the first place.
