Manually add a masked email to a password entry.
I've had quite a few websites that 1Password did not let me create a masked email for. So, I went into Fastmail and created the masked email. Which is fine. But… When you create a masked email in 1...
Not the OP, but I noticed the same issues. I don't remember the specific sites, but especially when changing the e-mail address, I frequently encountered situations where I was not given the option to generate a masked email.
One kind-of workaround was logging out, going to the sign-up page, creating the masked email there, and then pasting that in the existing entry. But the result is not the same and I don't think I had the option to edit an existing account with the masked e-mail in the same way that I could do this with new passwords.

ModeratorThank you! I came across it earlier again with PayPal (when trying to change the email of an existing account), so if you need a specific example that would be one.
Just having the option to create a masked email from the overflow autofill menu would probably already be sufficient, because I don't know how feasible it is to consistently recognise email fields in a change-my-email context while ignoring all other email fields.
