Apple uses privaterelay.appleid.com for such emails.

Spam handling is considerably minimised by the fact that only the app’s owners 
can communicate with their users over the user’s private relay address, nobody 
else can.

Subject: Re: [mailop] Firefox Relay
Isn't this just Firefox's copy of Apple's "sign-in with Apple" feature?  
https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT210425

I haven't looked closely at Apple's, they may be leveraging their existing 
domains which already have decent reputation to not worry
about the relay issue.

Whether providers can handle properly dinging relays is of course a known 
issue.  And this will partially depend on how good the SES
spam handling is, with the same caveat of all relays that lack spam feedback.

I note a new service: Firefox Relay
        https://relay.firefox.com/

    As you browse, the Relay icon will appear in form fields where
    sites ask for your email address. Select it to generate a new,
    random address that ends in @relay.firefox.com<http://relay.firefox.com>. 
Relay will forward
    messages to the primary email address associated with your account.

I guess we need to prepare for forwarded emails to our users via a new
intermediate.

I guess that some email services will either fail to, or chose not to,
accept these messages.
