What is AliasFleet?

What is AliasFleet?

Learn what AliasFleet is and how it protects your privacy with email aliasing

2 min read
Updated May 12, 2026

AliasFleet is an email aliasing service. Instead of giving out your real address when you sign up for things online, you create an alias — a made-up address like shop.a3f9k2@aliasfleet.me — and that alias forwards everything to your actual inbox.

You still get all your emails. But the website only ever sees the alias.

Why bother?

Most people hand out their real email constantly — shopping sites, newsletters, apps, random one-time sign-ups. Over time that adds up. Your address ends up in data brokers, marketing lists, and the occasional breach.

With aliases, if a site starts sending junk or gets hacked, you just turn off that alias. Done. No inbox damage, no having to change your actual email address.

How forwarding works

When someone sends an email to your alias, we receive it and forward it on to your real inbox. From your end it looks like a normal email. You can reply to it too, and the recipient sees your alias address, not your real one.

A quick example:

Your real email:  john@example.com

Shopping alias:   shop.a3f9k2@aliasfleet.me  →  john@example.com
Newsletter alias: news.b8m1p7@afleet.me      →  john@example.com
Social alias:     social.x2n9q4@aliasfleet.me →  john@example.com

All three land in your normal inbox. You just know which one each email came through.

Creating your first alias

  1. Go to Aliases in your dashboard
  2. Click New Alias
  3. Give it a label so you remember what it's for, e.g. "Amazon"
  4. Copy the alias address and use it wherever you'd normally put your email

That's the whole flow. Use a different alias for each site if you want full control, or reuse one alias per category — whatever fits how you think about it.

Free vs Pro

The free plan gives you up to 5 aliases, which is enough to test the idea out. Pro removes that limit and adds custom domain support and reply-from-alias.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an email alias?

An email alias is a forwarding address that receives emails and sends them to your real inbox. Websites see only the alias, never your actual email address.

Why should I use aliases instead of my real email?

Aliases protect your privacy, reduce spam, and let you turn off specific addresses if they get compromised — without changing your real email.

Can I reply to emails from my alias?

Yes, with the reply feature enabled, recipients see your alias address when you reply, keeping your real email private.

Is AliasFleet a free service?

There's a free plan with up to 5 aliases. Pro plans remove the limit and add custom domains and other features.
