00:00Ever feel like your inbox is out of control and your personal email is exposed to everyone? What
00:15if there's a way to take back control and protect your privacy? Let's explore how ProtonMail's
00:20email aliases can help you enhance your email privacy and organization.
00:24They don't have things organized. Email aliases are additional email addresses
00:32linked to your main ProtonMail account. They allow you to send and receive emails
00:37without revealing your personal email address. Think of aliases as nicknames
00:42for your email. That's a nickname? For example, you can use your main email
00:47address for important communications like work and personal emails. But when
00:51signing up for public Wi-Fi at the airport or a newsletter from a shopping
00:55site, you would create an alias instead. By using aliases, you can block spam and
01:00unwanted messages from reaching your main inbox while keeping your real email
01:04address private. Aliases make managing your online identity easier and safer, giving
01:10you control over who can reach you and when. ProtonMail offers several types of
01:17aliases to suit your needs. Plus aliases, additional email addresses, and hide my
01:23email aliases. Each type offers unique benefits for managing your email.
01:31Creating a plus alias is as simple as adding a plus and a keyword after your
01:35username. For example, your username. The plus sign and shopping at Proton.me when
01:42signing up for online stores. Emails sent to this alias will arrive in your inbox and
01:47you can easily identify where they came from. It's that easy, no setup required.
01:54Want even more flexibility? ProtonMail lets you create entirely new email
01:59addresses that are linked to your account. In ProtonMail settings, click on Identity
02:03and Addresses, then Add Address. Choose a username and select a ProtonMail domain
02:09or your custom domain. Then choose a display name and click Save Address.
02:14It's an easy upgrade to expand your email options while keeping everything secure.
02:20For maximum privacy, use Hide My Email aliases to keep your personal email completely hidden.
02:26Go to the Security Center and click Create an Alias. ProtonMail generates a unique,
02:32randomly created address you can use for signing up on websites, free trials,
02:36or anywhere you prefer extra privacy. And if an alias starts receiving spam,
02:42it's easy to deactivate it with a simple toggle. Hide My Email aliases are perfect for keeping
02:47your inbox clean and your identity secure. Now let's use aliases to keep your inbox organized.
02:56Go to Settings, then Filters. For example, move all emails sent to work.eric
03:03at Proton.me directly into a dedicated folder, such as Work. This way, your emails are organized
03:10without any extra effort. Aliases help protect your personal email, keep spam at bay, and make
03:16managing your emails a breeze. For even more control, integrate aliases with ProtonPass.
