Mailcow Aliases

iOS Universel / Utilitaires

Stop handing your real email address to every website. Mailcow Aliases creates disposable forwarding addresses in one click, powered entirely by your own Mailcow server. No third-party service touches your data.

Right-click any webpage (or tap the toolbar button on iOS) and a new alias is ready instantly. It forwards to your real inbox. When you are done with it, disable it or let it expire automatically. Your primary address stays hidden.

WHO THIS IS FOR

You run your own Mailcow server and want a fast, native way to create and manage email aliases from Safari. No third-party service sits between you and your server. Your API key is stored locally in the system Keychain, and all communication goes directly to your Mailcow instance.

Unlike cloud-based alias services, your aliases live on infrastructure you own and control. No subscription fees to a middleman. No trust required.

HOW IT WORKS

Right-click on any webpage (or tap the toolbar button on iOS) to generate a new alias. The alias forwards mail to your real address. Use it for signups, shopping, newsletters, or anywhere you want to keep your primary email hidden. When you are done, disable or delete the alias.

Quoi de neuf dans la dernière version ?

v1.5.0 - Settings That Stick

Your settings now survive Safari cache clears. No more re-entering your server details after clearing browsing data. API keys are stored securely in the system Keychain.

Security improvements:
- API key no longer syncs to iCloud
- All random alias generation uses cryptographically secure methods
- API responses are validated before processing

New safeguards:
- Delete confirmation prevents accidental alias removal
- Smart retry stops immediately on authentication errors instead of retrying for minutes
- Hostname and alias input validation catches configuration issues early

Bug fixes:
- Site Name alias style now works correctly from the iOS/iPadOS popup
- Settings page loads cleanly without error alerts on first launch
