General Question

On Gmail addresses adding a + before the @ gives flexibility to the address. Does it work on other providers?
For example say my email is johndoe@gmail.com
If I use johndoe+fun@gmail.com everything sent to that address will hit my inbox and I can filter through that characteristic.
Mostly I would like to know if this is a standard that can be used with other email providers.
Thanks
