I have found a LOT of inboxes unable to redirect email to an address that uses a "+" while being happy to redirect to a "-" address. I used to collect email from various inboxes via "redirect" and I wanted to redirect to a +tagged target inbox and failed to do that for multiple inboxes, while they happily accepted a -tagged target. IIRC at least the CriticalPath(OpenWave/Memova) "customers" have this issue (in Italy we have major providers using their software): I don't know if there is a "reason" for this, or simply a bug. You can write an email to a "+" recipient, but you can't have a redirect rule to a "+" recipient.
