For anyone who wants to do this easily: afaik (ymmv) most mail systems will accept aliases to your account if you put a + after your email username. for example, if you're foo@example.com, then foo+bar@example.com would still route to your inbox but you'd be able to see that it was sent to a different address than your own. i do this for any email i put into a website I don't trust (which is most) and if you use the company name it's a really easy way to see who sold your data
For a spammer it literally takes less than ten seconds to clean a list of one million addresses from "plus addresses" and get back the original one without the source. Only amateur spammers use raw lists without any sanitization
