This is exactly how I use it. Basically, if you receive spam on [email protected] you know exactly who sold/"lost" your address.
One downside is that you cannot send from this address, but you usually don't need that anyway. And in the rare case that you do, you can just create an actual alias.
Ah that is a good thing to keep in mind. Proton allows 15 email addresses on the account I have so I could always create one and delete it later.
SimpleLogin too. Create aliases even more.... aliased (aliaser?) .
I use them for extra control with some things. Example: I may have 5 main proton aliases each for a different thing like shopping or banking etc. Then sign up for Zillow House hunting emails with a SimpleLogin alias which forwards to one of the proton emails. When I'm done house hunting, I turn it off and they never had my regular one to lose in a hack or restart marketing and sell.
Too much work for me personally, to use one for every site but it's great for any heavily email traffic like political donation emails or a site with heavy notification emails.
