This extension makes it quick and easy to view, search, manage and create new aliases.

Please Note: The free plan is currently limited to a total of 10 active shared domain aliases (e.g. *@anonaddy.me) and 10MB monthly bandwidth. You can still create unlimited standard aliases for free by giving out [email protected] as your email address, the browser extension is not required to create these type of aliases.

To use this extension you first need to register (https://app.addy.io/register) an account with addy.io (it's free), then you can generate an API key on the settings page.

If you are self-hosting addy.io then make sure to click "change instance" and enter the location of your web app.

Paste your API key in the extension to save it. Now you can simply open the extension and create a new alias for any site.

Such a great service. Flexible with the alias and recipients system, and robust management with the dashboard, means you decide what you get where, and you know it's working due to the stats provided by the dashboard. I really appreciate this. On the plus side, when I needed support, it was fast and to the point. That's a solid 5 star to me.
