    neat gmail feature

    I want to share the nice gmail feature that allows you more control over your incoming messages.

    If you did not already know, you can use several unique email addresses that will all deliver message to a single account!!

    For example, of your email address is johndoe at gmail dot com, you can receive an email addressed johndoe+foo at gmail dot com, or johndoe+imgod at gmail dot com, etc. You get the picture . By adding '+something' to your existing email account infront of at sign, you can emulate several email accounts.

    Whats the use? For example you can see which forum or mailing list you are member of has been ripped by spammers who are now sending you all the drugs offers and advise how to enlarge your manhood or want give you some money...

    Enjoy!

    Now THAT is some handy information for exactly the reason given.
    I've often wondered how to know who was selling my email addresses.

    Thanks, hinko.
