What email provider do you use for sign ups? (lemmy.world)

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?

I use (and created) https://port87.com. It lets you use a different address for every account and keeps them all organized. It’s great for managing accounts. (And I have literally hundreds of accounts.)

One of the nice things is you don’t need to create a new email beforehand. You can give out an email address that starts with yourusername-, and it just works. You get a new label in your account that you can approve and it goes in with all your other labels.

You can also enable screening on a label if you wanna use it for real people, then it will screen new senders before you see their email.

Prices? Or am I dumb again, and just not seeing them?

Sorry, I don’t have the prices up on the landing site. Here’s the breakdown:

500MB of storage, receive unlimited mail, free
send mail, $1/month (to prevent spam)
2GB of storage, $2/month
10GB, $6
20GB, $10
100GB, $20
1TB, $40

I’m working right now on custom domains. I haven’t finalized the price, but right now my plan is to do unlimited domains for $10/month, plus $4 for each additional user.
