Generate a username
To create a random username from specified criteria, use the Bravura Safe Generator.
Plus addressed email
Use your email provider's sub-addressing capabilities to generate a random username based on your specified Email address.
This can be used to filter your plus-addressed emails for any junk mail you may receive when signing up for a new service. Signing up for a service with the username jane+rn0k6xsh@bravurasecurity.safe.com
will still send emails to jane@bravurasecurity.safe.com
, but you can then filter emails that include +rnok6xsh
to prevent them from filling your inbox.
Catch-all email
In some cases, catch-all inboxes are used by companies with their own Domain name (for example, @safe.bravurasecurity.com
), to prevent emails from going to your specific inbox and instead route them to a shared company inbox in case a record of them is needed in the future.
In other cases, individuals with their own domain (for example, @personaldomain.com
), use catch-all setups to route email from accounts with privacy-oriented usernames; for example, twitter.com@personaldomain.com
to their actual inbox.
