SimpleLogin: email and account recovery

SimpleLogin is an open-source alias service. It creates addresses that hide the real address. It is not a full inbox: mail then arrives in the mailbox you name.

The address that receives the links

Before you change providers, note the accounts whose reset mail arrives in the current inbox. The new address does not move them by itself.

What this page does not measure

If the destination inbox is full, filtered or closed, the alias does not save you. Check the destination before you create many aliases.

SecuFocus did not send a real message with this service. Open a trial account, receive one reset link, and only then move an important address.
