Clang Posted April 2 ID:1627248 Share Posted April 2 Don't trust my Xfinity email address anymore since the hack several months ago. Want a email provider with a good service.... Proton would me my 1st chose unless there are good (and free) email providers that you might know of. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clang Posted April 8 Author ID:1628472 Share Posted April 8 Ok ... I bought the Proton mail plus plan . Im getting the hang of it the mail app but getting confused about Proton Pass. Really want to use the hide my email feature. I set up 3 email address in the mail app but I cant change the forward to email in proton pass. It seems to stick to the default email address I got the scout with. Am I missing anything? Anyone have more experience than I with this ?(I hope,) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if it's hype though. After the release of Digital Footprint by msherwood earlier this week, there's incentive to take email much more seriously. The good news is I surprised myself by having only 2 out of 9 addresses "leaking." All the rest, I made up strange quirky addresses years ago.

Clang Posted April 13 Author ID:1629932 Share Posted April 13 One reason I paid for the proton email is that simplelogin is paired with them. https://simplelogin.io/ They have a hide my email address feature that I'm starting to use. What in does is that you can set up a alias address for each site you sign up for and then it will forward those emails to your real email address. So now when a dreaded data breach happens on their site your fake email is exposed for only that site and not your real one. The Proton package costs 110 yearly with the simplelogin service. Simple login is 30 yearly by itself . 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewTricks Posted April 14 ID:1630094 Share Posted April 14 thanks for the explanation of the SimpleLogin @Clang That does seem very appealing. Proton pricing package is high, but the SimpleLogin alone is reasonable. 😍 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
