Do you have a method for quickly creating new aliases on the fly?
My setup is nearly the same. I use two domains such as firstlast.tld and genericwords.tld.
Genericwords.tld has umbrella aliases for social, apps, subscriptions, orders, etc. I have rules setup up per umbrella alias to delete after 30 days, or always mark as read, or never mark as read.
I originally had service/site specific aliases in mind for easy deletion, but for my setup this creates a layer of friction that makes it quite cumbersome.
I considered umbrella+servicename aliases but those are not always guaranteed to be accepted.

- scintill76 6y agoYou also get more spam, sent to sales@domain, john@domain, alex@domain...

- codethief 6y agoYes, umbrella+servicename sometimes causes issues as I had to learn the hard way, too. As for me, I use PostfixAdmin (https://github.com/postfixadmin/postfixadmin https://github.com/postfixadmin/postfixadmin) to add aliases. Certainly not the quickest method but fairly quick I'd say. Clearly, it'd be even nicer if my password manager created an email alias for new accounts automatically.
