  • postmapweb

    Web-based tool to delegate Postfix virtual alias map management to domain owners

  • I've been doing this for 20 years now, and Apple or DuckDuckGo have made it accessible to normal people. The day I started receiving pornographic spam addressed to [email protected] (no longer the domain I use, BTW), I knew Dell's security was worthless and they had been breached.

    BTW I build a simple spreadshee-like GUI for Postfix to manage the list, as it's grown quite large:

  • wildduck

    Opinionated email server

  • or install https://wildduck.email or mail in the box type of server, just host it yourself. Wildduck web interface allows you to make unlimited alias already.

  • SurveyJS

    Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.

  • sievegen

    Keep track of and configure randomly generated email aliases on a domain you own

  • My email provider limits the amount of aliases I can register with them but they let me have a catchall and Sieve filters. So I wrote a script that generates "normal-looking" email aliases, then builds a Sieve filter out of that. Everything that goes to an existing alias reaches my inbox, everything else goes straight to the Junk folder.

    I've uploaded it to my GitHub: https://github.com/t0astbread/sievegen
