********************************************************************************************

SimpleLogin is an open source solution to protect your email inbox. It allows you to create quickly a random email address (aka alias). All emails sent to an alias is forwarded to your personal email address.

You can use the alias when subscribing to a newsletter, signing up for a new account, giving your email to someone you don't trust. Not only an alias can receive emails, it can also send emails. An alias is a full-fledged email address.

Later if you can simply block or delete an alias if it's too spammy.

Ratings and reviews

Been using on desktop with no issues, it's also good for software testing a dummy user. Mobile app seems good so far. When sending a message via Proton, use one of the "Copy" options, instead of "Begin composing with" option. And as the how-to message states, make sure you are selecting the correct "from" address in Proton if you have multiple addresses

I don't get it, maybe because it doesn't seem to work as described. I sent a test email to another email account I have and received it 3 days later. That doesn't seem right. If the concept is to have "burner" emails to hide your real email in order to register for stuff where you suspects your email may get sold and spammed, then it's a great idea that is confusingly implemented.

Warning: Beware of SimpleLogin's Auto-Renewal Policy and Lack of Notifications SimpleLogin automatically charged me for another year's subscription. Upon realizing the charge had gone through, just a few days after the auto-renewal, I immediately contacted SimpleLogin to request a refund. To my dismay, they refused, asserting that because the service had auto-renewed, they were not obligated to provide a refund, even though a very short period had passed. No prior warning given. Not using again.
