Gmail address aliases

I learned about this yesterday morning in a casual "post-church" conversation. Gmail allows email aliases. They explain:

Gmail doesn't offer traditional aliases, but you can receive messages sent to your.username+any.alias@gmail.com. For example, messages sent to jane.doe+notes@gmail.com are delivered to jane.doe@gmail.com.

You can set up filters to automatically direct these messages to Trash, apply a label or star, skip the inbox, or forward to another email account.

One more reason to like Gmail!
