MailPal vs Maski
Both stand on email alias services. Which one you can start free with, which one lets you read the code, and what each costs once you pay.
Free plan APILinuxMac+3
MailPal provides alias controls, organization tools, and an API at no monthly fee. It depends on a Cloudflare account and domain, so setup involves more than creating an account with the service.

Choose Maski if you want forwarding aliases with sender controls and a Chrome or Firefox signup extension. The free plan covers basic alias forwarding, while Pro adds higher limits, sending and replies, custom domains, and held mail. Look elsewhere if you need mobile apps or more than 25 aliases on Pro.
