One Gmail Account = Multiple Test Email Addresses

Don't know about you but a lot of what I do requires having access to multiple email addresses (testing websites that require signup etc).

In steps Gmail. If you have a Gmail account then you have access to "infinite" email addresses using that one account.

#The Gmail account I use for general testing is:

sam@gmail.com

#But I could also use any of the following:

sam+1@gmail.com
sam+2@gmail.com
sam+3@gmail.com
sam+4@gmail.com
sam+5@gmail.com
sam+1234567890@gmail.com
sam+returntest@gmail.com, etc etc


You get the idea. You can tack a + sign and then any random string after it to invent a new email address. Obviously it still delivers to your Gmail account and it lets you signup to a website over and over as a "different" user.
