Hi, I figured out how to work it. The extension says that only 5 aliases can be used. Can you explain that? 5 per day, month or what? I would also like to know if one of these generated alias emails can be used to sign in to sites which are just temporary. In case it were possible, would the verification email be sent to the Firefox email address? I appreciate the clarifications as they don't seem to be listed in your website. Thanks

This is an excellent idea, but I have been having issues with sites recently. The most recent one says, "Email not valid. Please use a valid working email address.

It's nice and works for most sites but it would be useful to have an easy way of auto filling the email address on new signups. Right now you have to go to the Relay website and copy the address every time.

The idea and fact that mozilla offers this is admirable of course. But the actual implementation makes it useless (at least for my purposes) and not worth installing an extension for.

The limitations:

- max 5 aliases
- not able to choose where emails get relayed to

Why can't I just simply copy my relay address, why should i click on the add-on icon, click "Manage All ALiases", go to a new tab and copy it from there? I have Relay icon literally near of e-mail form, it MUST show my aliases by click.

+ Alias email addresses created on-the-fly as well as in the alias management tab
+ Automatic and manual tagging of aliases with where they are used
- inability to influence the naming of the cryptic alias
- Create-alias symbol in email fields disrupts password manager auto-type features, like in KeePass. This is because the symbol is included in the field order and thus accessible with the keyboard TAB- and SPACE-keys. Workaround: add an auto-type entry to compensate when FF Relay is active.
- No ability to use the alias to respond to received messages

it's OK!

Unfortunately Firefox Relay uses Amazon Simple Email Service (Amazon SES). I despise Amazon and everything that they and Jeff Bezos stand for. Personally I do not do any business with Amazon and that includes Amazon AWS, and I wish that Firefox/Mozilla would find a better alternative for the core email service it is based on. Perhaps protonmail from Switzerland could provide this, which would be much better and ethically acceptable.

Regarding this add-on: The add-on works fine, but doesn't really add much useful functionality apart from being able to register an alias for relay addresses. The relay icon in any form field that accepts email is something that doesn't add anything for me, but it can be switched off. Instead of this add-on I prefer to use firefox lockwise for the usernames or email addreses and optionally the passwords.

Regarding Firefox Relay service: The number of 5 relay addresses is too little for my use case, also it would be good functionality that after switching off forwarding you'd be able to create a new relay address.

Some users have reported that some websites incorrectly assume these addresses to be temporary email. I believe this comes from the randomised hash in front of the @ sign. This could be circumvented by allowing manual entry of (part of) a username in a relay address.

la verdad no le encuentro tanta funcionalidad tenerla si solo es para es generarlos cuando puedes hacerlo en la pagina

Great idea, but txwo major flaws in the implementation:
- No way to quickly access existing / generate new email aliases from extension icon (it should display 1/ nb of aliases 2/ existing aliases 3/ generate new alias.)
- Relay icon on email fields clashes with password manager icon.

Awesome, just one HUGE improvement suggestion. On the button to add a Relay email, add the option to select from the already created aliases. Having click on the extension, manage aliases, copy the wanted alias, then go back to the tab and paste it is unnecessarily complicated.

relay.firefox.com fails DMARC on postfix MTA just like all other mails sent from firefox.com via amazonses service so this will only work for me until DMARC is enforced

Great idea. However, the first email I've received through this service seems to have been garbled due to encoding problems?

It would be great if whenever I click on the relay icon on the taskbar to display the list of aliases instead of clicking on the icon then clicking on manange my all aliases which will take me to a new tab just to copy my aliases.

Know this is probably not the Place (though believe it is relevant) but would the Developer mind responding to Review by: juan riccio posted nearby.

Not a user yet but am very interested in this. Tnx (3 Star for Middle of the Road, Had to install to review, Had to rate to Review,,,I think. Thank you Again)

I love it, but some bugs are really annoying.
It ruins lot of input fields, even basic website such as Google. I can't wait for improvement, really nice extension. :)

Like others have said - I love the idea, but just doesn't work for enough sites that I want it for (mostly social media or adult-oriented websites).

Update - doesn't work with Flickr

This service is a great idea in principle and I hope it helps funding Firefox. But I already found sites that are blocking these alias email addresses, probably because it's too easy to simply block the relay.firefox.com domain. I'm not directly blaming Mozilla for this but hopefully new versions of the service will make it harder for sites to block the aliases.

The idea of a relay junkmail with option to enable/disable redirection is excellent!

However, I find the addon and the user experience to be near useless.

BEST UX practice:
1. Click on email field, addon suggests to input relay address.
2. Click on any alias, it gets submitted to field. Nice and easy.

Current flow:
1. Click email field, addons says "You have X aliases left", only "Manage" button available;
2. Click Manage, get redirected to Mozilla sign in page;
3. Sign in to Mozilla;
4. Manually copy alias from the list;
5. Go back to page with email field;
6. Manually paste the alias.

Great idea. Unfortunately, the beta refuses to safe preferences (specifically the setting to stop replacing all email fields on websites). This makes it difficult-to-impossible to log in to some sites.

Love the idea here, but have a problem with encoded emails.
I receive emails in Hebrew, but the relayed emails appear Jibrish. I assume the relay does not work will for encoded languages.

Estensione quasi inutile... Problemi più gravi:
- Manca la possibilità di visualizzare le email bloccate
- Manca la possibilità di poter scrivere delle note vicino agli indirizzi (es. il sito dove è stato usato etc.)
- Non si può cambiare l'indirizzo email a cui vengono inviate le email
