A proxy address is an alternate email address that forwards messages to your primary email address. It's like a secret alias for your email, allowing you to use different addresses for different purposes.
Here are some examples of proxy addresses:
- [email protected]: This address can be used for work-related communications, keeping your personal email separate.
- [email protected]: This address can be used to sign up for newsletters or promotional emails, filtering them from your primary inbox.
- [email protected]: This address can be used for general inquiries or contact forms, streamlining your communication.
Proxy addresses can be helpful for:
- Privacy: Protecting your main email address from spam and unwanted messages.
- Organization: Separating different types of emails into specific folders.
- Security: Limiting the exposure of your primary email address.
Most email providers allow you to create proxy addresses within their settings. You can usually find the option under "Settings," "Account," or "Aliases."
