    The reporter noted that disposable verification addresses are rejected by Proton.

      You can simply use either: a different protonmail address or a similar service like tutanota.

        And how do you get either of those using a throwaway verification account?

          I mean, suit yourself if you insist that you can or only want to do it with a throwaway. I’m saying you can do it with similar services like tutanota as the failover address, eliminating the need for a throwaway.

            My bad. I thought Tuta also required a verification email when I created an account several years ago. Just tried it, and they don’t appear to these days. Good to know. Thanks.

        It feels a little like we’re playing Whack-a-Mole with threading multiple email providers here. :)

        The handle is a hobby nickname, by the way. My wife started calling me that as a trail name several years ago, and it stuck.
