Ask HN: Any Experience with ForwardEmail, Pobox and SimpleLogin?

[y3k]

Hello HNers,

I'm looking forward to have more "ownership" of my digital identity, and I want to start by controlling the domain of my e-mail addresses.

Been searching possible solutions and I think an e-mail forwarding service is a pretty good middleground, so I can keep my Gmail / Outlook accounts active while also being able to create "identities" on the fly.

It has come down to three different services:

- https://forwardemail.net/ - https://www.pobox.com/ - https://simplelogin.io/

All of them look almost identically appealing to me and their cost seems fair, but I'm not sure which one is more reliable or maybe has a "hidden feature" that makes it better than the others.

Does anyone around here have any experience with any of them? Maybe some success or failure stories?

Thank you.
