I just determined that plus addressing on email forwards broke with the transition from Google Domains to Squarespace (i.e. forwarding foo@bar.com to myfoobar@gmail.com used to also forward foo+tag@bar.com to myfoobar+tag@gmail.com). This means I'm now missing a bunch of emails, because as a general rule I would create a custom plus address with a relevant tag anytime I registered an email. So now I'm wondering if anyone has thoughts on a way to get this working in Squarespace. I added a wildcard email rule as a stopgap, but even that requires 24-48 hours to take effect. Alternatively, does anyone have any good recommendations on domain hosting providers that support email forwarding with plus addressing?

    @jschuh@infosec.exchange I bailed to Cloudflare before I got dumped onto Squarespace (registrar and email forward-only) and it's been fine, and does support +addressed forwarding properly.
