Today I want to write about two useful services I found some time ago. And as result, I use these services now.
- 33mail.com
You may register any username (will be used as name for sub-domain at 33mail.com) and all mails which will be sent to this subdomain, automatically will be forwarded to your email address. For example, you registered as smith with your standard email [email protected]. Now any mails to [email protected], [email protected] etc will be forwarded to [email protected].
You do not need create these aliases (aaa or anytext). These aliases will be created automatically when first message will be received by 33mail.comIn any time you may “cancel” any from used aliases and the mails (which will be sent to this address) will be returned with error (address not exist)As result, you may hide your real email address and use this service on some sites where email is required but you do not want to share your real address. - WeTransfer.com
For example, you need send some files to another person. You may send these files by email but please note that usually the mail servers have some limitations (size of attachment, content etc).
If you have the own site, you may upload these files to some remote directory (maybe add the protections with login and password if files are private) and send the link to download these file to your recipient(s).This service allow online to define the list of recipients, your email address and list of files with short text (like subject). As result, the recipient will receive the email with link(s) to download the file and you’ll get the notification when file(s) will be downloaded.The limited version (no more than 2Gb in one message) is absolutelly free.

In the current version for WeTransfer.com you can’t delete the file if you added by mistake. Better to cancel the mail and create the new.
Hope this bug they will fix soon.
