Fastmail Masked Mail alternatives?

To think that there is a three-year-old thread without further notice is kind of disappointing.

But I'd still love more email masking options beyond Fastmail! While their integration is great, it doesn't solve everyone's privacy needs.

Why Fastmail Alone Falls Short:

• Cost Barriers:
  • Masked emails tied to a paid Fastmail account
  • Excludes users with limited budgets
  • Not accessible to everyone
• Limited Flexibility:
  • Restricted functionality compared to specialized providers
  • Lacks advanced features like:
    • API access
    • Open-source options
    • Self-hosting capabilities
    • Personal domain support
    • Granular alias management
• Diverse User Requirements:
  • Different send-as and relay models needed
  • Varying legal and regional constraints
  • Risks of vendor lock-in
  • Pricing structures don't suit all user types

Recommended Providers to Integrate:

• SimpleLogin: Robust API, send-as functionality
• AnonAddy: Open-source, self-hosting options
• Duck Email Protection: Simple forwarding, large user base
• Firefox/Mozilla Relay: Privacy-focused, browser integration
• Addy.io: Business-oriented features

Integration Wishlist:

• Direct alias creation in 1Password
• Automatic signup form filling
• Alias rotation and deactivation
• Centralized alias management
• Generic connector framework for multiple providers

Why This Matters:

• Masking is becoming a privacy standard
• Users need flexible, affordable solutions
• 1Password could become the ultimate privacy management hub
