- Rated 3 out of 5by Ince Hamza, 4 years agoI love it, but some bugs are really annoying.
It ruins lot of input fields, even basic website such as Google. I can't wait for improvement, really nice extension. :) - Rated 5 out of 5by Justin, 4 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by xeoth, 4 years agoIt used to work just fine, but now it stopped forwarding registration/email confirmation emails. Well, it says that it forwards them (the "Forwarded" field is incremented), but no emails arrive in my inbox. Surprisingly, pure-text emails from my other email addresses arrive normally.
Reply 1: I use ProtonMail. And yes, I did check spam and trash and every other folder - it's not there. Also, pure-text emails stopped getting forwarded too :(
Late edit: works perfectly fine now.Developer response
posted 4 years agoProtonMail delivery should be fixed now; thank you for reporting this! - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 16277706, 4 years agoThis extension is great if you want to subscribe to newsletters and then forget them or you don't want to give your main email to a website.
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 13619449, 4 years agoLike others have said - I love the idea, but just doesn't work for enough sites that I want it for (mostly social media or adult-oriented websites).
Update - doesn't work with Flickr - Rated 4 out of 5by brandonpa, 4 years agoAbsolutely love this idea! Works great. 2 things of which I know one should (hopefully) be an easy fix and the other, more a feature request.
1. Can we have a list of the aliases that were created easily accessed so we can fill out email forms easier? It seems that when I want to use an alias I have leave my form and to go into the "manage aliases" page and the copy from there. There should be easier method to access our aliases to fill out the form.
2. Any way to respond through the alias? I know if I expect to receive an email that may be interesting, I may want to respond back, but still not with my own email address.
Thank you regardless for this awesome extension and hopefully it will only get better with time! Developer response
posted 4 years agoProtonMail delivery should be fixed now; thank you for reporting this!- Rated 4 out of 5by Slayereon, 4 years agoLove this idea, very useful for when you need to make a one-off account or when you're not sure a website is trustworthy. Will be so much more useful when we can make more/unlimited aliases.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14666618, 4 years agoThis is just brilliant. Registering for services online without having the concern of some data breach leaking your private mail address or dealing with a company that sells your e-mail address to third parties. Good job Mozilla!

- Rated 4 out of 5by Y_P, 4 years agoThe concept is good but I'm not receiving some confirmation emails when I use the relay to subscribe on a website.
Reply 1: Updated rating since everything seems fixed now :)
However, as some mentioned, it would be ideal for the widget to directly display the relay address and have the option to copy it.Developer response
posted 4 years agoIf you're using ProtonMail, ProtonMail delivery should be fixed now; thank you for reporting this! - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14124145, 4 years agoWorks fine.
One problem: it is very hard to copy emails from the manager if you have clipboardevents disabled, please auto select the email when pressing the copy button to CTRL+C it.
Also it would be better if there was no subdomain in the email. - Rated 3 out of 5by Cosmic_Annihilation, 4 years agoThis service is a great idea in principle and I hope it helps funding Firefox. But I already found sites that are blocking these alias email addresses, probably because it's too easy to simply block the relay.firefox.com domain. I'm not directly blaming Mozilla for this but hopefully new versions of the service will make it harder for sites to block the aliases.
- Rated 5 out of 5by high_bit, 4 years agoOttimo servizio! Da avere assolutamente per evitare lo spam in siti dove ti registri per prova
- Rated 4 out of 5by Uuuui, 4 years agoI like this extension, but it could be a bit better if you could choose which email address to forward emails to if you have any secondary addresses in your account.
Better yet, there could be the option to manually type the email address in, allowing you to choose whichever one you want. However, I understand if the developers don't want to add that feature because of the risk for abuse.
Also, if there is a way for Mozilla/Firefox Relay to tell me when a message that was supposed to be forwarded was blocked because it was too large, I'd like this extension/service even more.
I'm happy with how this extension is currently, but I still think it has some room for improvements. - Rated 5 out of 5by --FIRE--, 4 years ago
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 15187783, 4 years agoWorks for me. However it populates multiple entries in "Devices and Apps" section of Mozilla account. Probably as many as devices it's activated on. Makes no sense, as this is same service used across.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Jarooo_t, 4 years agoGrate add-on.. the only thing is the length of aliases.. some websites asking for shorter ones (like email address can't be longer than 25 characters) - any chance you can customize this a bit?? Thanks!!
- Rated 4 out of 5by JJ, 4 years agoVery cool addon, have been looking for something like this for some time, but it REALLY needs some way of having unlimited aliases. Maybe a pro version, maybe unlimited aliases with a custom domain, but unlimited aliases are really important because then you could create an alias for every website.
