AnonAddy (addy.io) is a free, open-source anonymous email forwarding service that allows users to create disposable email aliases to protect their real inbox from spam, tracking, and privacy risks.

---

🚀 Overview

AnonAddy provides a simple yet powerful way to generate unlimited email aliases that forward incoming messages to your primary email address while keeping it hidden from recipients. Users can create aliases on shared domains like anonaddy.me or custom domains, manage them via a web dashboard, mobile apps, or browser extensions, and even reply anonymously without revealing their real email.

The service emphasizes privacy with features like GPG encryption for forwards, alias deactivation to silently drop spam, and API access for automation. It's available as a hosted service with freemium plans or fully self-hostable via open-source code.

• What problem does this project solve? It solves the issue of email spam, data breaches, and unwanted tracking by allowing users to use unique, disposable aliases for every signup or service without exposing their main email.
• Who is it built for? Privacy-conscious individuals, developers needing API integration, and anyone tired of spam in their primary inbox.
• Why did you build it? To offer a privacy-focused, open-source alternative to proprietary email alias services, empowering users to control their email privacy easily and affordably.

Keep it human and honest.
