**Subaddressing** | Optional | An alternative to aliasing is [subaddressing](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Email_address#Subaddressing), where anything after the `+` symbol is omitted during mail delivery, for example you the address yourname+tag@example.com denotes the same delivery address as yourname@example.com. This was defined in [RCF-5233](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5233), and supported by most major mail providers (inc Gmail, YahooMail, Outlook, FastMail and ProtonMail). It enables you to keep track of who shared/ leaked your email address, but unlike aliasing it will not protect against your real address being revealed

**Be Careful with Mail Signatures** | Advanced | You do not know how secure of an email environment the recipient of your message may have. There are several extensions that automatically crawl messages, and create a detailed database of contact information based upon email signitures. If you send an email to someone who has something like this enabled, then you are unknowingly entering your details into this database

**Be Careful with Auto-Replies** | Advanced | Out-of-office automatic replies are very useful for informing people there will be a delay in replying, but all too often people reveal too much information- which can be used in social engineering and targeted attacks

That being said, if you run your own mail server, you will have full control over your emails. [Mail-in-a-box](https://github.com/mail-in-a-box/mailinabox) and [docker-mailserver](https://github.com/tomav/docker-mailserver) are ready-to-deploy correctly-configured mail servers that provide a good starting point
