SimpleLogin: Open-source Email Protection szerző: SimpleLogin & Proton Pass team, Adrià Casajus, Carlos Quintana

Use email ALIAS instead of your real email address to:
- defend your mailbox from spams/phishing
- protect your privacy.

All emails sent to an alias is *forwarded* to your personal email address.

SimpleLogin is an *open-source* email alias solution that allows you to quickly create an email alias.

Use an email alias when:
- subscribing to a newsletter
- signing up for a new account
- giving your email to someone you don't trust.

Later on, you can simply block an email alias if it's too spammy.

An email alias can RECEIVE & SEND emails: it's a full-fledged email address.
