    Thanks for the simple way of configuring of a lot of things esp. the aliases for mail!

    Just for consideration I would like the Use Case I am using it for:
    For many new sites I register, I use a different alias of my mail account. That means the list becomes quite lengthy.

    I am a bit worried that I am having an edge use case, that's why I want to raise awareness from the developers 🙂

    Thanks for delivering such a nice product!!

      I guess we have to find a way to make the list a bit more friendly.

      In the meantime, note that you can use Wildcard aliases that maybe help reduce the aliases list - https://docs.cloudron.io/email/#mail-aliases . You can also use https://docs.cloudron.io/email/#subaddresses without having to add aliases at all.

        That's what I do: I have a wildcard alias such as 202*. When I register on a site that I'm not comfortable sharing my real address with, I use something like 20230926facebook@domain.com.

        This way, I know when I registered and I can check if such website sells my address once you receive spam on that address. Then you can just "turn it off" vial mail or spamassassin rules

          This is pretty much covering my use case, great, thanks 👍
