Do Google Apps group email addresses and email aliases support plus signs and arbitrary periods in addresses, like normal Gmail addresses do?
For example, if I have a group email address (e.g. one that I'm using as an alias) called mygroup@example.com, will emails sent to mygroup+subaddress@example.com or my.group@example.com go through to the group email address?
If I have an alias myalias@example.com, can I use myalias+subaddress@example.com or my.alias@example.com in the same fashion?
