I like to use "tracking addresses" when registering with websites, by adding "+websitename" after my username (eg. [EMAIL PROTECTED]). I can then tell how a spammer got my address. Alas, a lot of web coders exclude "+" as a valid character in an email address, so I end up using a dot instead, and using sendmail's wildcard recipient feature to route unknown addresses to me.

Anyone know how to get sendmail to recognize more than the "+" for this feature?
