      Disagree if you wish. While "many" don't, "many" do... For
instance, my mail server and client (Outlook Express) had no problem
receiving the mail you sent with a From field that looked like:

      [mailto:hadmut+45852e998cdb18c752c9d9b6cf77aef7(_at_)danisch(_dot_)de] 


      Thus, while some servers and clients may have problems, I can
assure you that many people are able to handle single-user emails today.
Additionally, it is a fairly small change to existing systems to have
them adopt the existing convention of ignoring text between the "+" and
"@" symbols.


As the experiment just proved: Not even this ASRG mailing list can 
cope with it...
