For those of you that use a custom domain name for your email address, how (if at all) do you make use of email aliases?
I've seen many people recommend to use a unique alias for each account (e.g. [email protected], [email protected], etc.) in order to mitigate spam, but I'm wondering if this is more trouble than it's worth. Are there any unexpected consequences of doing this? I would like to keep things as simple as possible.
I'm considering just having one alias for personal/professional correspondence, one alias for "trusted" accounts (i.e. services that I don't think are likely to sell/leak my email address to spammers), and one alias for less trusted accounts.
