4 years agoHi, i have the same problem.
On some sites it works without any problems and the Create Masked Email option appears in the email field but on some it simply doesn't appear even if it's an email field. My guess is that 1Password doesn't see that specific field as an email field but in this case it would be nice to have an option that allows you to manually select to Create a Masked Email for that specific entry.
Because if 1Password doesn't see the field as an email and doesn't offer you the option to Create a Masked email the only option you have is to go to Fastmail, manually create a Masked Email for that Site and manually enter it after and save it into 1Password. The problem with this is if you manually do it like this, if won't automatically be associated as an Fastmail field into 1Password and you won't benefit from the block emails from this address option that 1Password offers directly from the app, which defeats the whole purpose of the 1Password and Fastmail integration.
I have attached 2 screenshots, one from one site that offers the Masked email option and the other one from a site which doesn't offer it.
I really think this is important and i would really like somebody from the team to address it because both services are payed and these options are detrimental for the integration of both services...
And btw i'm not using Mac, i am on Windows 10 Pro with the 1Password extension on Microsoft Edge and i'm encountering this on a lot of sites on which i want to change my current email address with masked ones from Fastmail...
