Re: [Asrg] Supplemental addresses (was: Indirection as a useful tool)

But here's what makes supplemental addresses really interesting. When you combine the use of supplemental addresses with pretty much any other anti-spam model, it tends to preserve the strength of the model while greatly reducing or even eliminating the negative side effects that pretty much every model contains.


Expecting users to create, remember and use any significant number of different email addresses imposes a significant burden on them. While you or I might find that burden both feasible and worthwhile, will it be either of these for an "average" user?

So my question about supplemental addresses is how they can possibly be viable in the Internet scale and variability of a billion users?
