I currently have some basic filters in Gmail, but the other day I heard someone mention you could use a plus sign in your address to filter incoming email?

Best Answer
This is your regular email address:
This is your email with plus addressing:
When you create a filter, just filter for messages sent To the one with the particular word after the plus (+) sign.
So your filter will look like this:
Now you can just hand out that email address with the plus and seed word and any incoming mail sent to that will be filtered however you want to deal with it.
