+1. I've been doing this for 20+ years. Every site I register gets a new account following a pattern <prefix><site>@mydomain.com.

Incredibly helpful to track who leaked your email and to whom, better control spammers, etc. Just checked on Have I been Pwned, and I have 30 emails from my domain there [1]. Anecdotally, there's at least another 50-100 email addresses that I get spam regularly, so HIBP is a small subset of all the leaks.

Easy to implement. I use G Suite with Gmail[2], but it works with most other providers.

[2] disclaimer: I work for Google, but not on G Suite team, and I pay for the service on my own.
