MyShield vs YeyMail
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 Web
Choose MyShield if you want aliases that forward to an existing inbox, with optional custom-domain support and reply-from-alias on paid plans. Look elsewhere if custom-domain aliases must route to multiple independently chosen inboxes or if your expected message volume exceeds its documented limits.

Free trial ExtensionWeb
YeyMail combines signup aliases, forwarding, and replies from aliases with a browser extension. Check the shared-domain limits and the SMTP setup needed to start new conversations as an alias.
