MailPal
What it is
MailPal creates email aliases for sign-ups and forwards incoming messages to a real inbox. Aliases can be disabled manually or configured to stop after an expiry date or maximum-forward limit. Wildcard mode can create aliases automatically for new incoming addresses. One dashboard manages multiple domains, each with separate settings and a default forwarding address. Every alias records forwarded and blocked counts and keeps an activity log. Notes, color tags, full-text search, and bulk actions help organize addresses. The SvelteKit application provides a REST API for alias, domain, tag, and destination operations. MailPal is open source and links to a public GitHub repository. The maker says email content is not stored, third parties do not access aliases or traffic, and no analytics or tracking are used. It deploys through Cloudflare Pages, Workers, KV, and Email Routing. The free plan has no monthly fees and runs on your Cloudflare account’s free tier, but requires a Cloudflare account and a domain added to Cloudflare.
