Sites
Sites lists the services where you gave one of your addresses: a shop, a social network, a newsletter, a bank. When each site gets its own alias, you know who may have shared your address: an unknown sender writing to that alias raises a directory alert. Open Mail, then click the Sites tab. It has three tabs: Overview, All sites and Search.
Add a site
- On the Overview or All sites tab, click Add a site.
- Enter the Name and the Web address. The domain is taken from this address, to recognise e-mails sent by the site itself.
- Optionally, pick or type a Category (for example Shopping, Social network, Newsletter or Bank and finance), the date you Signed up on, a Note and a Logo.
- Click Save.
The message Site added. appears. If the web address is already in your sites, the page says so and offers See the existing site.
Follow your sites
The Overview tab counts the Sites followed, the Addresses given and the Sites with a leak, then shows the sites Recently added and those with a Leak reported. Click Manage sites or View all sites to open the list.
On All sites, each site shows its Web address, Category, the Address given, when you Signed up, when it was Added and its Leak state. In Show, choose Active, With a leak, Removed or All. Click Detail to open a site.
Tip — To find a site, click the Search tab and enter a name, a web address, a category, a note or the address you gave it.
Open a site
The site opens on its Overview tab: its Identity, the Alias entrusted, the Correspondents from this site, its Open alerts and its Data leak state. The other tabs are Aliases, Correspondents, Your data (the addresses entrusted, since when, the leak report and your note) and History.
To change the name, web address, category, signup date, note or logo, click Edit in the Identity card, then Save: The site has been updated.
Entrust an alias to a site
An alias serves one site at a time, so only your aliases not entrusted to another site are offered.
- Open the site and click Entrust an alias (on the Overview or the Aliases tab).
- Choose the Alias. Optionally, enter its Usage on this site (for example the account or the newsletter) and the Hand-over date.
- Click Entrust the alias.
The message The alias has been entrusted to this site. appears. To take it back, click Detach on the Aliases tab, then Confirm the detachment: the alias itself, its messages and the site are kept.
Report or lift a data leak
When a site let your data escape:
- Open the site and, in the Data leak card, click Report a leak.
- Optionally, enter the Date of the leak (optional) and How you found out (optional). Without a date, today's date is saved.
- Click Confirm the report.
The message The leak has been reported. appears. The report shows in your sites and on the record of every correspondent who writes from this site. Nothing is sent to the site and no alias is closed. A report never expires on its own: when the situation is settled, click Clear the report, then Lift the report.
Remove or put back a site
- Open the site and click Delete, or click Remove on its row.
- Click Remove.
The message Site removed. appears and the site leaves your list. The address given to it is released. To put it back, choose Removed in Show, click Put back on its row, then Put back: Site put back. The site comes back with everything already recorded about it.
