update!: Add Forward Email to email service providers
Disclosure: We are the maintainers and owners of this business, which has been around since 2017 and is the only 100% open-source email service.
Changes proposed in this PR:
Hi there! :wave: We have added our service Forward Email to the list of email service providers. It supports both SMTP, IMAP, POP3, API, webhooks, catch-alls, regular expressions, aliases, and email forwarding. We've been around since 2017 and support ~250,000 domain names right now, reject 30M+ spam emails daily, and deliver 1M+ emails daily. To highlight a few users, we're used by The National Association for Amateur Radio (ARRL), Disney Ad Sales, Google's Flutter dev team, and Tufts University.
Unlike Proton Mail 1, Skiff 2, and Tuta 3, we are actually 100% open-source on GitHub (@forwardemail is our org).
Happy to make any changes to the docs as necessary for this PR to get merged! Let us know if you have any questions or if we can clarify anything else further. Our FAQ is pretty extensive.
To keep your site Privacy Guides tidy and optimized, we also ran svgo to compress the svg icon files we added in this PR:
❯ svgo --multipass forward-email.svg -o forward-email.svg
forward-email.svg:

Looks like an interesting product, generally though we would request you open a thread on our forums for inclusion/discussion.
If you could do that, I'll mark this one as missing discussion.
@dngray we have requested membership to the developers group on the forum (our username there is "forwardemail").
@titanism Maybe I could make a post linked to this pull request on the PG forum? Or no?
@rollsicecream I'm OK with whatever works for everyone! We're almost done adding PGP support, should be following up here once we add tests.
@rollsicecream
Just let them do it when they are ready
@titanism, make sure to link this PR in your post and it will provide a backlink to the forum automatically.
Also for anyone following or curious: we are adding support for calendar, contacts, and newsletters soon.
@rollsicecream @dngray still awaiting approval and haven't heard from anyone yet, maybe due to holiday season?
Recently we posted to Hacker News and Reddit to answer Q&A, which can be found at:

We also started a subreddit at https://reddit.com/r/forwardemail and a Matrix Chat channel #forwardemail:matrix.org at https://matrix.to/#/#forwardemail:matrix.org.
Hello! I am not a team member of PrivacyGuides, so I cannot grant you the developer badge to let you post in the forum. Sorry!
There is already a discussion opened for this tool. I suggest you all write there:
https://discuss.privacyguides.net/t/forward-email-email-aliasing-service/13370?u=ph00lt0
One note to @titanism getting listed on PG isn't just done by opening a PR. The community reviews suggestions carefully and we will compare it to existing recommendations and best practices so that only the best is recommended. This process can take a while.

@jonaharagon @dngray @freddy-m Any chance we could get added now? We now support encryption of TXT records on the free plan. See the comment here https://discuss.privacyguides.net/t/forward-email-email-provider/13370/125.
Neat! Good question. I'm going to put this next on my to-do list to review personally, but unfortunately I don't have any time until around the 4th of August to do so. Maybe dngray is able to get to it sooner, otherwise I should be able to that week or so :)
Hi all, wojciechxtx here. As of now, Im against adding this service to PG.
@MrSuddenJoy you were banned from our community for 7 days because of your repeated argumentative behavior on the forum. Moving your discussion to GitHub is not acceptable. Please take a break from Forward Email discussions and consider the staff feedback which was previously given to you.

What would be the proper way to include a link from https://github.com/privacyguides/privacyguides.org/blob/main/docs/email-aliasing.md to the main page including FE in the list (e.g. next to Addy/SimpleLogin)? Rather than duplicating the logic, something like * [Forward Email](./email.md#forward-email)?

Figured it out! https://github.com/forwardemail/privacyguides.org/commit/a0b3c2663a735f4ddf622402392b786946b3e5d4
We've resolved all conversations related to this PR. See the current diff at https://github.com/privacyguides/privacyguides.org/pull/2358/files which includes updates for icons, fixes for the payment section, fix for the windows icon, and we changed the icon from green to the blue info one, since we don't support XMR/Monero/crypto/cash yet, and more.
