I used to use Protonmail, however the verification steps become tedious when creating unique emails for sign ups. I've switched to Tutanota despite it contravening their one account policy. What do you all use for one off emails (for sign ups etc )? Or do you prefer one of those 10 minute email sites?

If you're paying for Proton, you have access to SimpleLogin, which lets you make unique addresses that will forward to your real address. You can even respond from those addresses.

There are several other services that do the same thing (e.g., AnonAddy).

Perhaps I haven't used it to its full capacity but, I have a free proton account and I still have access to simple login

Duckduckgo has an email redirect thing where you can make temporary addresses that forward to your normal one.

I use Gmail as a trash account for easy logins and proton for the rest with Gmail forwarded to proton so I never have to open Gmail itself.
