Description
I think a good one to mention on email alias vs plus sign blog page would be:
Some medium sized companies don't support sending emails to Plus-addresses, however they will allow you to enter the plus-address email in their system, thusly causing you to loose access to your account.
Notably most Canadian banks and Canada's Interac E-Transfer will allow you to enter Plus-addresses, but just won't send emails to them.
My insurance company and utility companies also had this issue. It was a pretty big deal-breaker for the plus method.
