Now, some of these "solutions" don't check for the domain name of the corp, but for the corp's name, meaning fictitious example avis[@]mydomain.com would match if Avis had such a system.
It took me a long time to diagnose why I wasn't getting any emails from two corps on my corp@mydomain, although disposable email addresses without the corp's name worked fine. It's one of the reasons why I'm now migrating to using unique alphanumerical IDs instead of corp names for my @mydomain addresses.
Interesting, thanks for the tip. I will adjust as well.
