That's what I do. When I give a company an email, I give
[email protected] it's very quick and easy to work out who is
selling email addresses. All mail to *@mydomain.com lands in a single
box ;)

Back in the days of snail-mail, it was fairly easy to trace who put me on
which mailing lists because I have a Welsh name and (then) an even more
Welsh address. Companies used to mis-spell the name or address in every way
imaginable (plus a few more besides) and those same mistakes would turn up
in junk mailings, revealing (often surprisingly) which of many everyday
businesses used to do this.
I suppose this is same principle - putting variations in the email addresses
you use to back-trace where it got onto mailing lists in the first place.
