Those email are then forward to your Fastmail inbox . From there , you could also block annoying emails from 1Password . ( you may see it in action in the video below . )

The “ catch ” here is that you need to have both a 1Password and Fastmail score to get the Masked Email feature . If you already have both , you’re able to just tie the accounts . If not , you ’ll have to sign up for the one you do n’t have .
