ProxiedMail Reviews

My inbox is amazingly clean now.

A great option to protect your primary email and prevent spam. Importing your domain with aliases gives you more control and greater privacy. In my opinion, I can recommend it as it's a necessary tool that provides greater security.

While the core idea—email aliasing—isn’t new, it does work quite well in practice. Especially for the price, the features are solid: the ability to set a prefix and “catch-all” for that prefix (like prefix.*@domain.com) is very handy. This means I can segment my emails for different uses (newsletters, accounts, etc.) without enabling a real, global catch-all address that would flood me with spam. It’s a smart way to manage categories without overwhelming your inbox.

Another strong point is the option to bring your own custom domain, which is much appreciated for those who want more control and a personal touch.

However, there are downsides. The UI and UX feel clunky and unpolished; sometimes creating new aliases or even refreshing the mail list can be slow. The workflow isn't as seamless as it could be. A major letdown is the lack of a proper browser extension: there’s no Firefox extension at all, and the Chrome extension seems broken at the moment. For a service like this, having a reliable, easy-to-use browser extension would make a world of difference.

Overall, ProxiedMail gets the big things right and is a good value for the price—but I hope the team focuses on performance, usability, and browser integration in future updates.

I will stake my profile on the current and future attention to details of this product for a few reasons.

1.) While I often look for specific niche Privacy/Security products for my stack, I have spent (3) decades mostly investing in the people behind them when taking certain risks. Not only is Alex responsive, after a little poking around, his personal story is why I find this review worth sharing.

2.) I have not inquired with him yet about some interesting use cases and possible ideas/tweaks or even what he might be envisioning with this project. I do believe, however, he is open minded and thoughtful enough to take the time and make this the best it can be at each step/stage.

3.) IMO, It is more than a well thought out clean security product that is evolving, it is developed from a much deeper necessity that was solved for himself first above profits.

As mentioned, 30 years in the Privacy/Security arena, I sense part of Alex's reasoning, thought process and approach to solutions behind the process(s) is quite spot on for layers and overall cat/mouse that security really is. It is not always what you can add or bolt on, but what you can strip away from the noise of what your trying to accomplish. I feel this is being highly considered as this develops.

4.) I find it has a very simple front end for us, and a great part of separating A and B and keeping the human involved and such. Have been testing it a bit and it is exciting. Will be expanding it out slowly.

If you are in the Security arena and seeking an interesting method for your own Privacy/Security I would not hesitate to give it a try. Nothing will ever be 100% secure, if anyone ever tells you that, find an honest persons opinion.

This is a no brainer to add to your stack. As the title says, "Just Do It and at LEAST Review It"

Thanks Alex, keep it up, take a little downtime for the holidays, I will be in touch outside of here in the near future.

Merry Christmas/New Year coming to everyone everywhere you are. Be well.

The option to use temporary eMails is really a basic need nowadays. ProxiedMail serves that purpose in a very simple an straightforward way. Setup and use are super simple and intuitive. The service works reliable and disruption free.
For the current LTD price an absolute must purchase.

One wish that is on the roadmap would be the integration of more domains. Several mail systems recognize ProxiedMail as forwarder already and refuse to accept such addresses.
