    Here's an odd one. Customer Support at Change.org got back to me on why my email is not considered valid. They do not allow emails that "start with a few words" for spam reasons, like "chris@".

    I was like, okay... what if I just try a subaddress, like chris+test@.

    Yup, it works. Circumvents their annoying anti-spam with little effort, idk why websites keep reinventing anti-spam methods. #security

    A screenshot of an email from Change.org support explaining that email addresses starting with certain keywords like "chris@" are not valid. It lists examples of blocked keywords, including "account@", "noreply@", "masteremail@", "postmaster@", "mymasteremail@", "infomail@", "admin@", and "mail@".
