haveibeenpwned alternatives / data? (infosec.pub)

My personal domain has hundreds of aliases - one for each site I deal with. This is great for identifying the source of spam, and I retire any aliases that get spam.

haveibeenpwned.com lets me add a domain, but wants 3912 USD a year to actually tell me which addresses leaked. This is obviously an insane price for a nice-to-have.

Is there an alternative for free or very cheap? A self-hosted tool that would pull down lists would be great, but I suppose those lists aren't public.

I am not sure what you are talking about.

I have a domain registered and can see exactly which addresses have been compromised by what, without payment.

I see this:

Domain search restricted: You don't have an active subscription so you're limited to searching domains with up to 10 breached addresses (excluding addresses in spam lists). Only results for subscription-free breaches are shown below, upgrade your subscription to run a complete domain search. If you believe you're seeing this message in error, make sure you're signing in to the dashboard with the correct email address (check your latest receipt if you're unsure).

Interesting.

I see a list of email addresses.

~~Perhaps that message only shows up if some of the results are from the paid lists. For me, I don't see anything listed beneath, even though 34 addresses match, so I guess nothing's in the free lists.~~

edit: Looks like it's triggered on number of results:

Most domain searches are free. Once a domain has more than 10 breached email addresses on it, searching the domain requires a subscription. There are several ways to either reduce or entirely remove the need to have a subscription:

That's interesting, since my list of addresses contains numerous ones that don't exist and nobody here has ever used.
