Hi bigtunacan, thanks for your feedback. 1) "That's going to be a pain in the ass to remember": the extensions are there so you don't have to. 2) "how do I login?": we're currently developing this side the service. 3) See 2) 4) We're planning on proposing mobile apps too. To put it into context, nBox is fairly new and we did not implement all our ideas before knowing if people were gonna be interested.

Understood; and I'm not being a hater. I'm just trying to provide some useful feedback after checking out your service. In regards to the extension though; that's just such a bad direction to go IMHO. Most email is being read on phones these days anyway; does NBox even work from a phone today?

  No harm taken, the service is not perfect yet and it lacks a lot of functionalities, that we can agree on. It works on android phones with chrome, but like you said I wouldn't remember the generated addresses, so we think the extension is a big part of the service, and unfortunately, extensions are not available on mobile. We're working on the subject to find the best solution possible.

The service is fine as-is. It sounds like a perfect complement for a password manager like LastPass or 1Password. All the points brought up are addressed by the password manager: sync across multiple devices, use multiple browsers, etc. A password manager generates random data for the password textbox. Your extension generates random data for the email textbox. Perfect!

  I was thinking the same thing! Come back to me when it integrates with LastPass

    That's the thing, it doesn't need to. Nbox fills the email text box with something random, and LastPass or 1Password takes it from there. It generates a password for you and asks you to save the login info for future use.

I've been wanting something like this for awhile to combine with my LastPass use. Now I can have different email addresses and passwords for everything.
