- Rated 3 out of 5by BirchTreeCoconut, 4 years agoWhy can't I just simply copy my relay address, why should i click on the add-on icon, click "Manage All ALiases", go to a new tab and copy it from there? I have Relay icon literally near of e-mail form, it MUST show my aliases by click.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 16609060, 4 years agoI find this extention to be a fantastic addition to an already great browser experience. However everytime I wish to use one of the alias created I have to go to manage all aliases and copy/paste it. It would be nice if by clicking on the extention icon, a drop down menu would reveal the generated email adress and allow a quick selection and copy/paste function. In any case thank you for this already great extention.

- Rated 3 out of 5by Atrazine, 4 years ago+ Alias email addresses created on-the-fly as well as in the alias management tab
+ Automatic and manual tagging of aliases with where they are used
- inability to influence the naming of the cryptic alias
- Create-alias symbol in email fields disrupts password manager auto-type features, like in KeePass. This is because the symbol is included in the field order and thus accessible with the keyboard TAB- and SPACE-keys. Workaround: add an auto-type entry to compensate when FF Relay is active.
- No ability to use the alias to respond to received messages - Rated 4 out of 5by Mykothy, 4 years ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13821962, 4 years agoReally useful. Honestly a few tweaks away from being perfect. First and foremost would love to see the ability to click to copy alias from the drop down. Still a great extension and worthwhile.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 16487111, 4 years agoIt is extremely useful, but i would like if it is possible to name it to something that has a meaning, maybe a combination of two random words, or possibly giving the ability to name one of the aliases.
Also reply support will be appreciated. - Rated 5 out of 5by MuhammadMK66, 4 years ago

- Rated 2 out of 5by hokonch, 4 years agoFirefox Relay haven't been comfortable yet in Japan. I have experienced not receiving many emails from Japanese websites. So, I tested Firefox Relay on popular Japanese sites. Among 20 websites selected from SimilarWeb top websites ranking in Japan, I failed to sign up 11 Websites.
ベータは終わった?ように見えますが、まだ日本のメールへの対応は道半ばのように見えます。人気サイトの会員登録でテストしたところ半分以上で確認メールが届きませんでした。人気サイトでこれならば、リニューアルもなかなかできない普通のサイトではもっと多くの割合で失敗するのでは。
追記: ドコモメールもYahoo!メール (もちろんyahoo.co.jp の方です) もRelayアドレスに送信すると不通になりますね。 - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 16450530, 4 years ago
- Rated 3 out of 5by Rob, 4 years agoUnfortunately Firefox Relay uses Amazon Simple Email Service (Amazon SES). I despise Amazon and everything that they and Jeff Bezos stand for. Personally I do not do any business with Amazon and that includes Amazon AWS, and I wish that Firefox/Mozilla would find a better alternative for the core email service it is based on. Perhaps protonmail from Switzerland could provide this, which would be much better and ethically acceptable.
Regarding this add-on: The add-on works fine, but doesn't really add much useful functionality apart from being able to register an alias for relay addresses. The relay icon in any form field that accepts email is something that doesn't add anything for me, but it can be switched off. Instead of this add-on I prefer to use firefox lockwise for the usernames or email addreses and optionally the passwords.
Regarding Firefox Relay service: The number of 5 relay addresses is too little for my use case, also it would be good functionality that after switching off forwarding you'd be able to create a new relay address.
Some users have reported that some websites incorrectly assume these addresses to be temporary email. I believe this comes from the randomised hash in front of the @ sign. This could be circumvented by allowing manual entry of (part of) a username in a relay address.
