Yes and no. It essentially does the same thing, but makes it easier. You don’t have to set up anything beforehand. You use subaddressing by default, so you can give out an address like degen-channel5@port87.com, and it creates the “channel5” label for you when it gets an email addressed to it. It has per-label controls, so if you just don’t care about those emails, you can have them not send notifications and mark them as read.
I think anonaddy lets you use ad-hoc addresses like that too, but you can’t set it to mark them as read and no notifications, since anonaddy isn’t the actual email service.
This is pretty much exactly why I use Port87. Instant block for the Channel 5 label.
Huh, never heard of port87. Is it much different from simplelogin or anonaddy?
