Create unique email address aliases that are linked to your real emails. You'll still send and receive mail with their apps as usual. Avoid the security breach domino effect, keep your personal email out of people search sites, and protect your privacy online.

πŸ‘‹ Hello, Product Hunt! πŸ’― Three years ago I began working on Ptorx, and today I'm releasing v6, a full rewrite that's 100% open source, which I believe is important for privacy-focused software. 🎲 I'm sure most of you tech-savvy people here randomly generate unique passwords for each site, but what about the emails? πŸ” Keeping your personal email addresses private and out of vulnerable or shared databases is an important part of protecting your privacy and security. πŸ“§ Ptorx creates email aliases that redirect incoming mail to your actual email addresses, so you can keep on using Gmail or whatever your current setup is. πŸ“ƒ Features... - Create unlimited email aliases to hide your real email addresses - Optionally forward incoming mail to your real email addresses - Send mail anonymously using your alias - Reply to mail using your alias, even within a non-Ptorx inbox like Gmail - Optionally save mail to Ptorx (which can be PGP encrypted) - Quickly create and access your aliases from the web, our browser extension, or mobile apps - Create aliases using your own domain - Create custom filters to route (or block) mail to different addresses - Create custom modifiers to manipulate email content before redirection - Free indefinitely, with some small paid packages for those who need more - Every line of code is public, so you can even host your own Ptorx server - No analytics, tracking, ads, data harvesting, or similar 🐣 Oh, and the new logo is a pterodactyl. Get it? The P is silent...
