I'm Dante, maker of Hi.new For a long time, I've always been annoyed at the spam emails I keep getting; it can get really ridiculous. "How How, Why, why, Omg, WT..., 🤦🏽". That's usually my expression with spam emails. Have you ever wondered why some emails end up in your spam folder when they should be in your inbox, while others make it to your inbox but should be in spam? I've felt there should be a solution that bridges this gap, providing a more efficient way to manage your emails. It's not about getting another email address for me personally because it will circle back to the same issues. It's a missing layer on top of your email address. So, over the weekend, we built a simple attempt to address this problem and help you prevent spam while still staying reachable. With over 500 users on the first day alone this has become one of my favorite tools to us.

Love the domain! Great idea, made mine: hey.new/ben

interesting idea, though I couldn't understand much from the website ... the main question is, are you reading/crawling the emails?

Firstly congratulations on the launch of @hey.new as SPAM is such an underrerated area. I have two queries. Q1. How much chance is there that I get a very important email (first timer) spammed due to this guard ? Q2. Are there customizable filters in this SPAM Gaurd ?

Congrats on the launch! I'd have used it if the mail address was an actual mail address instead of a URL. Cos most forms have regex to validate email and fail for URLs.

This looks really useful! Good luck with the launch today!🎉

All the best for the launch @dantelex & @mahmoudgalal

Great way to solve a big problem! Good luck! Mine: https://hey.new/ai-

Now I can finally stop getting annoying spam emails from when I put my email address on Hacker News threads :) This looks awesome!

This is great! Spam is something that absolutely needs solving, I really like your approach to this. Excellent work! 👏

Yo, I was wondering what are the privacy issues of such application. Does hey.new has access to all the content from emails sent over it? Where are these data saved? Don't want to be the bitchy person, but it does look like a contact form where some of my messages are filtered by some reading agent.

In the age of AI this is so relevant! But I don't get how people can email a URL 😅 And I don't think people get that either? What am I missing?

This sounds like a neat solution to cut down on spam—definitely a problem I've been looking to solve! I'm always cautious about sharing my email, so this could be a game changer. Can i use its own filtering system, or does it integrate with existing email filters? Upvoted because I think more people should check this out, especially if they're worried about their inbox security.

I've heard of Hey.New, not sure where though but a great way of ensuring you get relevant people to access you and not expose your email to spammers, a probtinhave encountered severally. Congratulations 🎉🎉

Nice tool, good luck and congratulations on the launch!

i hate email this makes email better i like this

Oh, that's a really simple problem and an amazing solution, great job!

Wow! I'm definitely going to try it!

Hey Dante! Congrats, I truly love the concept!

Hi, the idea is amazing, congratulations on the launch! I just wanted to clarify how it works. So I need to send this link, as I send my email, right? Also, is it possible to attach files?
