4 years agoFeature Request: SimpleLogin Integration
The Masked Email feature is a great idea but the downside is it’s limited to Fastmail. It would be great to have SimpleLogin integration so non-Fastmail users could take advantage of Masked Email.

The fact that it has taken so long and we have not received any information probably indicates that there will be no implementation.
Even Bitwarden has an implementation.However, Proton Pass has also gotten better and better. Simplelogin is fully implemented there.

I understand you are busy and likely have more pressing matters to address, but it has been 3 years and 1 month since the initial request for SimpleLogin integration that I've found. I acknowledge that SimpleLogin is now owned by Proton, a competitor of yours, but it should be easy to decide whether to integrate SimpleLogin support for your "Masked Email" feature. There are clear benefits to using an email alias service instead of relying solely on your personal email for everything. This decision should be even easier for you given the following:
- SimpleLogin is open-source and can be self-hosted.
- There is publicly available API documentation for every endpoint, making it extremely easy to integrate and a widely-used solution.
- As the project can be self-hosted, any integration would require a field for users to input a SimpleLogin API URL. This would allow other email alias providers to create endpoints for a SimpleLogin-compatible API or, if they lack a compatible API, anyone could create a open-source middleware or adapter that could be deployed by anyone in one-click to Cloudflare Workers, for example, to receive requests from 1Password, parse them, make requests to the incompatible service, receive their response, transform it to match the SimpleLogin API specification, and return it to 1Password. Making every email alias service compatible with 1Password.
- Matters related to security and privacy should not restrict users to a single vendor.
- You understand the importance and benefits of using email aliases, so why would you not want to make it easier for people to start using them?
I understand there may be shared interests between Fastmail and 1Password's team, owners, or investors, and there may be a greater interest in not assisting your competitor, Proton, by implicitly recommending one of their products. However, please do not let these factors hinder the value of your product or cause the many users who have requested this feature to wait for another 3 years.

This is a needed feature, I'm actually considering switching to ProtonPass simply due to this integration, Fastmail is simply too expensive for what it offers.

It's a feature request. Non-developmental at this point to the best of my knowledge.

What is the status of the Simplelogin integration? Is it actually in development? It sounds like it's not even on the roadmap...

Another long overdue request.
The SimpleLogin creator mentioned on his GitHub that he contacted you ages ago to make this integration happen.
Please make a move on this one.
