I really don't understand this need to create aliases on the fly for each place that needs my email address. I've had the same Gmail address since 2006 and I have other email addresses I use for various things. Everything funnels to my Gmail Inbox. I get almost no spam in the Inbox. If I do get something I don't want I first try to unsubscribe using the links in the email or I can easily just block them in Gmail if someone still spams me. I've got a handful of blocks and they work perfectly. At work I do the same thing with Outlook/Exchange and it works almost as well, though Microsoft likes to put legitimate emails into the Junk folder. Creating all those aliases adds so much complexity, and it seems to indicate a failure of the basic email functionality of Junk/Spam filtering.
