In their own words
EmailAlias.io
EmailAlias.io creates private forwarding aliases so services do not receive a user’s real email address. Mail forwards to an existing provider such as Gmail, Outlook, ProtonMail, Yahoo, or another inbox. Sender exposure scoring looks for risky domains, typosquatting, phishing keywords, and other leak signals, while machine-learning spam detection blocks phishing, malware, and unwanted mail before forwarding. The service says it does not read, analyze, or store forwarded message bodies or attachments and keeps delivery metadata; email metadata logs are retained for 90 days. Premium users can add up to five custom domains, send and reply from aliases, and use the REST API and MCP access. The Free plan includes 10 aliases. Premium costs $4 a month. Browser extensions support Chrome, Firefox, and Edge; no mobile apps are listed.
TMailr
TMailr combines receive-only temporary inboxes, masked forwarding aliases, email deliverability checks, and a developer sandbox on the web and through an API. Temporary inboxes use private links, receive mail only, and disappear when they expire. Free inboxes last 60 minutes by default, can be extended to 24 hours, and hold up to 50 messages; Pro inboxes are described as effectively unlimited and remain active while subscribed. Masked aliases forward messages to a real mailbox, can be paused or blocked separately, and keep the forwarding address out of TMailr pages and API responses. Deliverability tools include Gmail inbox tests, domain checks for MX, SPF, DMARC, MTA-STS, and TLS, plus header, address, and DMARC tools. Developers get test and live keys, JavaScript examples, polling, and signed webhooks. Incoming HTML is sanitized, remote images are blocked until requested, links show destinations, and attachments are virus-scanned; executable files are refused.
