by Robert Noyce, 4 years agoA great service. I've been doing something like this for > 20 years due to risk of breaches. I retire breached email accounts and make new ones to replace it, alas some email addresses are priceless as I joined gmail when it was in beta in 1997, and had a choice of easy nice names without numbers on them. So what I've done is made disposable email addresses that forward to my main email, and rarely give it out. Creating aliases on-the-fly that forward is a better alternative, so it preserves the main email, very much like how Virtual Account numbers use generated credit card numbers. The generated numbers are easily discarded and replaced. I also do this for my cellphone number, and change it periodically, since many providers allow this without cost, but keep an alias that is unchanged, but easy to change too if needed. Kudos to your team to think of new ways to enhance privacy and security.
The 150KB limit is a bit small, but adequate to inform the main email of a message from X. It would be helpful if during forwarding you stip photos, images etc., to save quota space, and transmit only text and attachments. Strip the attachment if it exceeds your limit. if you can provide a link to the native content if it exceed 150KB, and all such links expire in say X days , regardless to save server space and give users the opportunity to see the email at native size.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Goofy3696, 8 days agoMozilla's Mask email addresses are incompatible with a lot of websites. Which is a major inconvenience. Also, because of this service, a ton of important emails get filtered to my Gmail's SPAM folder. Setting up an email address for non-personal use is quite easy and the ability to reply is not hidden behind a paywall.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Morten, 10 days agoThe devs should know that almost no websites will accept email addresses with random combos of letters and numbers, like cw98sdy2u@mozmail.com!! Some sites even seem to block mozmail.com. At the very least, let us pick something that resembles a real email!

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 19096526, 12 days agoThis is so complicating to use. I can't find how I can mask my email when I can't even put it in my Samsung email app on my Mac. This is absolutely a no go. Just can't use it. Disappointing.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Lilly, 14 days agoI have only ONE email address so why is this so complicated? That also means I have only password. So WHY is this so complicated...constantly being told to "log in" when I am obviously already logged in!
