This task can be performed using Cleanbox
Email aliases, AI spam filtering, and a full SMTP relay
Protect Your Inbox with Aliases
Create a unique forwarding alias for every store, newsletter, app, and public form. Each alias hides your real address, while email forwarding sends accepted messages to the inbox you already use. Keep a secure record of which service received each alias.
When an alias receives unrelated spam, identify the source, disable that alias, and replace it only for the affected service. Before switching important accounts, confirm that verification codes, receipts, and password resets arrive correctly, then remove any exposed address.

More about alias naming rules
Use a naming system that identifies the recipient without exposing sensitive details. A consistent pattern makes leaked aliases easy to trace and reduces mistakes when you rotate or disable them.
- Use a disposable email alias for one-time downloads or low-trust forms.
- Reserve random aliases for accounts where guessability or correlation matters.
- Never recycle a compromised alias for a different account.
