'Creating a new inbox' was an exaggeration on my part. What I have is a catchall on my fastmail account. But when I talk about creating creating inboxes it seems to make it easier for normal people to understand what I'm doing and the benefits it brings.

That would be nice, but I don't have a nice way of doing it. I've tried to use something like rot13 to make it less obvious, but it is a pain to manage it. It would be nice it existed a cypher that was pretty easy to do in my head, but I never found anything like this.

Yes, this is a problem. For a targeted attack this may become a weakpoint in my defense. But this is a calculated risk I'm willing to accept for now.
