That's what the email alias company that proon bought last year and rolled into subscriptions is for.
Also, if you buy your own domain, which from cloudflare is like $10/year, you can turn on catchall and use anything@yourdomain and have it delivered. Then, if one of your anything addresses gets compromised, you just block all email going to there and move on.
I find unless you use the proton password manager the alias feature is too hard to manage from mobile anyway.
Maybe I'll convert from my current manager to it, but I do like the idea of alias emails.
Bitwarden also has an alias service integration
It does but it is plus email addresses. So any half smart spammer will just remove anything in between the + and the @ With proton it is an entirely unique email address that cannot easily be tracked back to your email.
No I'm not talking about plus addresses. You can add an api key from addy.io or simplelogin and generate a unique address in Bitwarden
This is the help I was seeking :-)
