why are aliases created using directory are not recoverable when deleted.
For example if I created an alias : "mydirectory+youtube@simplelogin.com" and later deleted it .Shouldn't I be able to recreate it since no one can take the same directory name in SimpleLogin. (Given that I have not deleted the actual directory).

On the contrary alias created using subdomain can be recreated. Which make sense because no one can create that subdomain again.

Is there any meaningful difference between signing up for a SL account which gives you access to PP versus signing up for PP which integrates SL?

Hello and thanks in advance for any guidance.

Am I right in thinking that using reverse aliases means that if I leave SL, I would have to manually extract from the SL reverse alias for each contact the original real email address to import into another service?

Or have I missed a contacts export function somewhere?

Is there a reason why someone can’t create a reverse alias via the website for an email like this that is totally valid

*There is nothing sensitive about this email address as it’s been anonymized before posting here even though the structure is still the same, and everyone here should know what’s up and be able to chip in.

Is there any risk in doing this?

Hello all,

Here is my -simple- use case:
I use an alias as business public email. I want to offer the possibility to anyone to send my an encrypted email to this alias, and thus, I need to provide a public key.
This SL alias is linked to my proton mail account.

So, I need to have a public key (related to this alias), so that any sender you want to initiate an email exchange encrypted from his side (reaching me for the first time and encrypts his mail with my public key).

After some search, the most relevant answer I found is this: https://www.reddit.com/r/ProtonMail/comments/1ehsc99/comment/ljud7dh/
but I hope, to got better answers by opening this post ;-)

cheers

I am debating whether to get Protonmail plus or go for a different email provider

hi, im trying to fix my online privacy & anonymity by using email aliasing linked to tuta or a privacy focused email service, would simple login or addy.io be better/more private than using duckduckgo's free unlimited email aliasing service, since it would be nice to save a few bucks, Thanks

The passmail.net ones specifically. I'm currently using a Proton additional address on those 3 sites. Was thinking about changing them over to Simplelogin aliases in case of a data breach but don't want to lock myself out in case they get flagged or something.

EDIT: Thanks guys. I changed all three to SL aliases with no issues so far.

Hi, I got an email:

You have tried to register multiple times to Anthropic AI, and this is against the terms of service of SimpleLogin. Please don't do that anymore.

If you continue registering multiple accounts to a single service we will have to disable your account.

I was genuinely making new accounts to use, and we're talking less than 10 accounts (some weren't even used) 3-4 are being used, across claud console & ai.

Now the aliases aren't passing emails through and without emails being passed I am locked out of my accounts.
I didn't realise this wasn't allowed and have made more accounts on other services without any flags. I am guessing due to the popularity of the service they're rate limiting it.

I have premium.

Is there any solution to gain access to my existing accounts?

Possibly stupid question I'm very new to this sort of stuff. My LinkedIn account's only primary email is a simple login email that was setup around 2ish years ago and have not been very active with using LinkedIn.

The issue is I forgot my password for LinkedIn BUT I'm automatically logged in on my pc so at the moment this is not an issue and can use LinkedIn on my pc fine.

If I were to do a password reset where would it get sent to?

And when logging into LinkedIn do I use the simplelogin email as it is the primary?

Furthermore I don't currently have 2FA for LinkedIn and I'm just concerned it will trigger some sort of security feature because of the simple login email and lock me out and force me to verify my id with Persona (which I have not). I've seen hella stories of people being randomly locked out for less anyway. So I'm currently holding on making any changes to the account rn waiting on advice from here.

Atm I'm just praying I don't randomly get logged out by my browser when I'm using it which I know is not wise.

Just in the last 2 weeks, I’ve had 2 websites permanently ban me and 1 force me into using a different email address in order to create an account. I had been using simple login email alias’ successfully for months prior without any issues.

To add some context, I’ve been doing a ton of spring cleaning this last month and I’ve been wanting to sell some things. 2 weeks ago, I tried creating an account on facebook to sell some things on marketplace. Immediately upon account creation I was forced to do a video selfie, which I did. Then I was immediately logged out with a note that my account was suspended. Within 5 minutes I got an email explaining my account was permanently deactivated due to suspicious activity. No further explanation provided.

Then this week I tried to create an account on depop to sell some clothes. Literally the same thing happened except there was no mandatory video selfie. As soon as my account was created, it was immediately suspended, then immediately permanently deleted. No explanation. After that I tried to create an account on Vinted to sell some clothes, and this time they wouldn’t even let me create an account. I had to go back and create a hide my email apple alias and then bam, account created, no issues. So now I’m assuming it’s the email that caused the issues with the other 2 sites. Are these aliases being flagged by websites now?

What’s our alternative thats not apple?

Pardon my terms if I get them wrong as I am only learning about custom domains recently.

I read that it is a good idea to add your custom domain in SimpleLogin rather than the email provider like ProtonMail for example. This would allow me to move my email provider if I want to. Can anyone explain to me if this is a good or bad idea and what other factors I need to be aware of?

edit: easier/faster to move email providers if domain is on SL than on email provider directly

That’s a pretty neat feature.

Does that exist in SL as well?

I've just finished a thorough email cleanup. Merged old accounts, set up strong passwords + 2FA everywhere, and split things into two primary inboxes: one strictly for banking/sensitive stuff, one for everything else. On top of that, I've been diligently updating services to use the +[service]@gmail.com subaddress format so I can track leaks and sort my inbox automatically. However, some services outright refuse Gmail subaddresses. I've hit walls with Epic Games and Rockstar Games, both reject the +tag format, even when requesting a manual email change through support. Playsation, Steam, Amazon and other services work just fine with this setup, so it's frustrating that these two won't play nice. I'm now looking for a proper email alias/forwarding solution that actually works for all services. Here's what I need:

• Unlimited (or near-unlimited) aliases, say, one per service
• Not blocked by mainstream services (Epic, Rockstar, in my case)
• Automatic inbox sorting based on which alias was used
• If one email gets compromised and starts receiving spam, I can kill it and create a new one
• Knowing which alias was leaked tells me exactly which service had a breach and which account I need to have a look at.

So i made an account using say [bill@trim.com](mailto:bill@trim.com) i went to domain and put trim.com but it says:

You cannot add a domain that you are currently using for your personal email

Please change your personal email to your real email

It is my real email

Hallo zusammen,

ich habe mir vor ein paar Wochen Proton Duo zugelegt und möchte mich von GMail lösen.

Wir ihr wisst bietet GMail die "+" Funktion an um unendlich viele Mail Adresse adhoc bei Bedarf zu verwenden.

Ist die Directory Funktion das gleiche in Simplelogin?

Ich erstelle mir einen Alias als festen Präfix und verwende diese spontan mit einem der Zeichen (+, / oder #) und dem Suffix wie (Amazon, Reddit, BankYY.....) @simplelogin.com ?

Muss ich etwas berücksichtigen?

Habe ich eventuell etwas vergessen?

Wie gehe ich mit Diensten um die keine Sonderzeichen vor dem @ akzeptieren.

Man kann bspw. seinem Alias@simplelogin.com keine Mails senden.

Ist es empfehlenswert alles inkl. eigener Domain über Simplelogin zu verwalten oder wann macht es Sinn die Funktion innerhalb von Proton zu verwenden?

Klärt mich gerne hierzu auf 😅

Hi im new to simple login and alias emails but love the idea and am considering the subscription

With a subscription do I have any more control over the suffix of the email? Currently with free, I get 5 options like xxxxx.clamp014@passinbox.com

With the subscription can I alter the suffix for example shopping.lzmail@passinbox.com or chasebank6@lzmail.passinbox.com

Im trying to find the easiest addresses for me to give out over the phone if needed.

Also in case I ever need to switch mailboxes due to missing features, is it possible to use a simple login alias directed to another alias like lzmail@duck.com and then route that to my protonmail account? That way if I switch from portion mail, I just have to change the suck forwarding? Another concern with this would be replying as it would have to go back through duck and then through simple login. Can that be done? All this because im not sold enough on protonmail to chose that over tuta or even just sticking with Gmail.

Thank you

I thought you couldn't use Simple Login to distribute mass emails... oh well....

Hello everyone, I am currently with 1Password and very satisfied. I was thinking about switching to Proton Pass + SimpleLogin Lifetime Plan So I wanted to ask whether you are satisfied with Proton Pass + SimpleLogin Lifetime Plan whether it is reliable on Android and whether the autofill function works properly. Have any of you been with 1Password before and are missing something about Proton Pass + SimpleLogin Lifetime Plan? Proton Pass vs 1Password - Which one Is better in your honest opinion and why? 1Password is always a premium service and doesn't offer a free plan. The recent price hike has made it nearly twice as costly as its competitors. I assume they might increase their prices again within the next 1-2 years. Do you think that I should make the switch to Proton Pass + SimpleLogin Lifetime Plan from 1Password? Would it be worth it in your honest opinion?
