Basic Information

Name: AnonAddy (short for anonymous email address)
Category: Email
URL: https://anonaddy.com

Description

Open-source anonymous email forwarding. Create unlimited aliases for free.

Features Include:

  • GPG/OpenPGP encryption on forwarded emails
  • Browser extension
  • Custom domains
  • Reply to forwarded emails and send from aliases (paid feature)
  • UUID / Random Word aliases at shared domains
  • API

FAQ: https://github.com/anonaddy/anonaddy#anonymous-email-forwarding
Privacy Policy: https://anonaddy.com/privacy/
Terms: https://anonaddy.com/terms/

Why I am making the suggestion

I believe this service can complement email providers such as Tutanota/Protonmail by allowing users to create a different email alias for each site/service that they use.

If someone is still using a provider such as Gmail they can add their own GPG key to encrypt all forwarded emails and prevent inbox snooping.

My connection with the software

I am the author of this software, working on it full time.

  • [X ] I will keep the issue up-to-date if something I have said changes or I remember a connection with the software.

I only have positive things to say about this service; I think it'd be worth adding to the "Interesting email providers or services under development" section.

Seems to be entirely open source, something I like to see. (confirmation?)

@willbrowningme How is your project different from SpamGourmet or Enrine.email?

Yes the service is open-source and can be self-hosted (although I need to add to the instructions).

@Zcr34 The ability to add your own GPG key to encrypt all fowarded emails. You can send from aliases (initiate email conversation), I know Erine.email does support this too. You can use aliases at shared domains that are not linked back to you by your username. You can add multiple recipients per alias. API access is available as well as a browser extension. AnonAddy is also all green on hardenize.com.

Keep in mind all email forwarding must abide by the email criteria or it shall not be listed see #1672 for that, this includes things like MTA-STS, TLS-RPT, DANE verification etc.

Have they been audited?

I really like the concept but if there are flaws, one could just read all the emails coming through, isn' it?

Protonmail is the only one I know of that has been audited, they get audited every year.

That's right, ProtonMail was audited by Cyberkov.

Why mentioning c0x0 if it's closed source when there are other open source alternatives?

To be fair, as its a service, being open source matters a lot less since you cannot be sure that the code they publish is the same code they are running. Open source with services only really matter if you want to self host.

Well, you have the option to self-host with all of them if that's the case, still a feel a lot more safe with open source alternatives and if it's the same I still don't see the problem with recommending the options I mentioned.
