You can also use the + for email adress, [email protected]. No need to register another mail adress for each service. It can lead to problems logging in though, not everyone knows that + is a legal character in mail adresses.

Panix.com has a feature that sidesteps that problem. It accepts any email address that looks like: [email protected], where you can customize "hackernews" to be a mailing list, company, or any text; and "myname" is your actual email address, eg [email protected]. No charge. Works great. Easily filtered.

I had enough validation and dictation issues with that approach that I registered a catchall email on a subdomain, so I give out [email protected]. For one thing, anyone wise to that trick will just strip

  /\+[^@]*/

from your address and bypass the fingerprinting.

Can also just get a catchall and forward everything to the same inbox, and then create folders based on the receiving email.
