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?

    I use (and created) https://port87.com. It lets you use a different address for every account and keeps them all organized. It’s great for managing accounts. (And I have literally hundreds of accounts.)

    One of the nice things is you don’t need to create a new email beforehand. You can give out an email address that starts with yourusername-, and it just works. You get a new label in your account that you can approve and it goes in with all your other labels.

    You can also enable screening on a label if you wanna use it for real people, then it will screen new senders before you see their email.

    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).

    Create a different alias for everything using a service like:

    • SimpleLogin
    • Addy (AnonAddy)
    • Firefox Relay
    • Apple Hide My Email

    Duckduckgo has an email redirect thing where you can make temporary addresses that forward to your normal one.

    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 >:(
