If you don't need email notifications, then it's not a problem.
One nice feature from gmail/yahoo/outlook/etc.: temporary email addresses that forward to your email. This would solve the problem.
Or, maybe alternative notification methods are preferred? If they wanted, a user can input an email address with a plus (if they're using gmail) and then receive notifications only on that. If the user wanted, then they could block all incoming messages that match that generated email.
Thought most email notifications are annoying, they can be useful (or crucial).
