TinyMail: Protect your Email Address from Spam

One of the reasons why you get so much of spam in your email is because you participate in online discussion in forums, websites and other places on the web and all these sites require your email address for registration, which unfortunately are easily picked up by automated spam bots thereby making you a potential target of spam and phishing emails.

TinyMail intends to prevent spam mail and protect your email address by masking your email and generating a pseudo look for your original email. The website’s interface is very simple and it has a bar where it asks you to enter the email address which you intend to protect.

Once you enter your email address and hit protect it, you get three different formats of your email which can be used on websites, forums or just as a link.
