I do the same thing and believe it or not I’ve seen websites reject emails with their own name in the email.

I had one do that. When I give the address in person I get "do you work here?"

I had to switch my hosting provider at one point because they stopped supporting catch-all. I have no idea how many "addresses" I've used, since I don't create a specific email for each, so I had to get new hosting (note: this was over 10 years ago)

I recently got a letter from a companies' law department and had to explain the whole thing :D
