Use a custom domain with proton simple login. I set a wildcard regex and just allow @customdomain.com. I can make up an email on the spot and when they inevitably add me to some annoying mailing list, I can just disable it in simple login.
Thanks! What’s a proton simple login? In this use case could I use my name.com domain? I think mailbox can do this!
proton owns a service called SimpleLogin, you can use it to setup and manage email aliases. What is mailbox?
Thanks!
Mailbox.org is a commonly recommended service beside Tuta and Proton. I was going to switch from Proton to Tuta to have more custom domain emails but it doesn’t allow service outside of its apps. Mailbox.org is cheaper and allows 50 custom domains :)
