Alias settings in Gmail

Gmail has an alias feature that allows you to make one address into another.
Addresses will change, but they will be sent to the same account and can be managed centrally, and they can also be sent from an alias.
This feature is useful for filtering by address and creating multiple accounts for web applications.

Example :
- foo+bar@gmail.com
- foo+hoge@gmail.com
- foo+1@gmail.com

and can be created in any number of ways.

Alias by dot

If you add . (dot) to the user (before the @) of a Gmail address to create an alias.

Example:
