If it helps, I believe Gmail also allows you to use your username
followed by a "+", followed by additional text in your email address
such as "example+vimlist@gmail.com" for filtering purposes. I don't
know how it interplays with their list-subscription stuff, but it's
useful if you need it. I whitelist my main account ID, allowing only
people with whom I've previously corresponded to send to that;
everything else coming to that gets marked as junk. I then use the
"+" extensions for all my mailing lists and web-forms to ensure that
I can filter them accordingly, or cut them off at any time if they
abuse it.
