Hide My Email: receiving (spam) mails on addresses that don't exist (sh.itjust.works)

I haven't been able to find any information about this online, so I'm posting it here.

I've been receiving emails TO addresses like @icloud.com.

I've checked all my hide-my-email aliases (including the archived ones) and I don't own these addresses so I cannot disable them.

I'm wondering if anyone else has run into this issue?

So I'm using the default (apple) mail client. But normally, routed through private relay. I think it opens all emails and loads all content from an apple server, then forwards the content. That should trigger tracking pixels, even when I don't open emails.
