What email provider do you use for sign ups?

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?

mail.tm is pretty nice for this. It's meant to be used as a throwaway email service, but you can also save the login credentials and reuse the email address if you need it more than one time.

For trash sites (random forums, free software downloads, porn etc.) that do not get my real information, and it doesn't matter if I lose the account, I just use a random 10 minute email site.

For anything where I input my personal information, or deem slightly more important, I use a catch-all address in Protonmail with my own domain.

Create a different alias for everything using a service like:

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