[keycloak-user] Email is unique within one realm

[Vlastimil Elias]

Hi Sebastian,

small hint out of Keycloak. Some email servers (eg gmail) allows you to
use email addresses with unresolved part after + sign, like
sebastian.olscher+something at traveltainment.de. Emails for this kind of
address are delivered to "base" email
sebastian.olscher at traveltainment.de then. This may help you create more
accounts with different emails delivered to same person.
If your email server doesn't support this "dynamic" aliasing then it
probably supports some "static" aliases defined by admin.

Vl.
