[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1942616, member: 396914"] "Hide my email" is actually pretty handy in some spots. If you are forced into providing an email to gain access to someplace on the web, use "hide my email" to have an alias created for that one access. Apple will then forward any email to that address to your icloud email address, so that you can, if needed, do whatever verification the requesting site needs to let you in. If you start to get spam at that fake address, just shut it down and it's gone. [/QUOTE]
