💌 Email Alias

Generate and manage email aliases for wildcard relay domains directly from Raycast, using the active browser tab as context.

⛳ Features

• Alias: Receive — generate an inbound alias for a service (e.g. netflix3f2a@yourdomain.com) based on the active browser tab. Give this address to a site when signing up.
• Alias: Send — construct an outbound address so you can reply or initiate email from an alias without exposing your real inbox. Uses the format alias+recipient=domain@yourdomain.

🔌 Relay Compatibility

The outbound address format follows the convention used by Addy.io. It also works with other wildcard alias relays that support the same outbound sending format, such as Firefox Relay.

🧬 Installation

• Install the Raycast app
• Install the Browser Extension (optional — pre-fills the service name from the active tab)

Production

Download the latest email-alias.zip from Releases, unzip it, then in Raycast: Import Extension → select the dist folder.

From Source

npm install
npm run build

Then in Raycast: Import Extension → select ./dist.

🏗️ Development

• Node 22.5

npm install
npm test
npm run dev

npm run dev hot-reloads the extension inside Raycast but does not produce a persistent install — use the production steps above to install permanently.

🙋🏼 How to Use

1. Open the webpage you want to create an alias for.
2. Run Alias: Receive to generate an inbound alias to give to that site.
3. To reply or initiate email from an alias, run Alias: Send, enter your alias and the recipient, then copy the outbound address into your mail client's To field.
