I used to use Protonmail, however the verification steps become tedious when creating unique emails for sign ups. I’ve switched to Tutanota despite it contravening their one account policy. What do you all use for one off emails (for sign ups etc )? Or do you prefer one of those 10 minute email sites?
If you’re paying for Proton, you have access to SimpleLogin, which lets you make unique addresses that will forward to your real address. You can even respond from those addresses.
There are several other services that do the same thing (e.g., AnonAddy).
Perhaps I haven’t used it to its full capacity but, I have a free proton account and I still have access to simple login
Yeah you get like 10. Which is still pretty useful if you manage them correctly. Like one for banking, one for gaming, random signups, etc
Duckduckgo has an email redirect thing where you can make temporary addresses that forward to your normal one.
I use Gmail as a trash account for easy logins and proton for the rest with Gmail forwarded to proton so I never have to open Gmail itself.
Create a different alias for everything using a service like:
- SimpleLogin
- Addy (AnonAddy)
- Firefox Relay
- Apple Hide My Email
+1 for simplelogin.
Cancelled proton unlimited since the majority of their platform is lacking features on Linux and switched to just a simplelogin subscription to pocket the savings.
mail.tm is pretty nice for this. It’s meant to be used as a throwaway email service, but you can also save the login credentials and reuse the email address if you need it more than one time.
Protonmail or Gmail.
Edit: but lately also Apple’s email obfuscation service tied to iCloud. But I’m an Apple platforms kinda guy.
I like guerrilla mail (short term email generation) but I’ve found that a lot of their domains are blocked by these sites I’m trying to sign up for >:(
