True, I missed that "custom domain" isn't part of the lowest tier.
The point still stands though, if you have a mail provider that supports custom domains there usually isn't a limit on the catch all aliases you can add (or a very high one). In any case it's far from being "prohibitively" expensive.

That is definitely possible with Fastmail as that's how I use it. In their case I believe that feature is called "Alias". If you reply to an email you just select with alias you want to reply from.
