So i’ve set up a custom domain to use with protonmail and was curious if anyone else uses the catch all in this manner.
I was thinking that when a new account is created on $website I would use a custom email address that would then be caught by the ‘catch-all’. So say the domain is catata.fish, and the website is target.com, then when signing up I would use [email protected]. Previously when using gmail I would use [email protected].
Does anyone see any issues doing it this way? Thanks!
Ah that is a good thing to keep in mind. Proton allows 15 email addresses on the account I have so I could always create one and delete it later.
SimpleLogin too. Create aliases even more… aliased (aliaser?) .
I use them for extra control with some things. Example: I may have 5 main proton aliases each for a different thing like shopping or banking etc. Then sign up for Zillow House hunting emails with a SimpleLogin alias which forwards to one of the proton emails. When I’m done house hunting, I turn it off and they never had my regular one to lose in a hack or restart marketing and sell.
Too much work for me personally, to use one for every site but it’s great for any heavily email traffic like political donation emails or a site with heavy notification emails.
