Could Graymail list include "To"? for throwaway addresses

[ankh]

I use Sneakemail quite often when I have to give an email address to see something.
(That can create a unique email they then forward to my Sonic address)

The useful thing is -- when one of those Sneakemail addresses gets stolen or sold, and begins to be spammed, I cancel that one.

It would help to see the page of graymail display the "To" address, or at least the part after the @

I'd like to know without opening each piece of spam if it was
-- sent to sneakemail.com or snkmail.com

Then I could delete that one specific address at Sneakemail and they'd bounce spam to it.
(If I had given that address to someplace I do need to interact with, I'd make a new one for that purpose)

Any way to make that part of the header show up?

Or, of course, have I missed something obvious?

I agree that sneakemail is a very useful tool. I've been using it for a long time with almost every online account that I create. It's helped me keep spam down to a minimum, and it's been quite interesting to see which sites have leaked my addresses. On several occasions, big sites like airlines have been responsible but denied any security issues when I called them on it.

I actually find the "From" header more useful for determining whether an email is from sneakemail, since they always add a tag identifying the address sent to. For example:

From: "Amazon.com ship-confirm-at-amazon.com |Amazon [email protected]|" <[email protected]>

(I added the address masks there.)

When I see those on the graymail list, the 'sneakemail' address is one Sneakemail creates to forward the mail (so a reply goes to that).

All that tells me (from the graymail list page) is the mail was forwarded via Sneakemail.
It doesn't tell me which Sneakemail address received it.
So I have to open the individual message and look.

I'm wishing I could see (in the list of graymail) the "To" line the spammer originally used.
I _think_ that's in the headers as forwarded. Maybe not?

For spam originally sent directly to [email protected] that'd be, duh, [email protected].
No reason to include that on the graymail display, I realize, as it'd always be the same.

Wondered if it was an option I'd missed, because anything sent to my sneakemail addresses ends up at sonic, so it'd be handy to know exactly which sneakemail address is suddenly being spammed, easily, from the graymail list page.

Just wishing out loud. It's my method of programming (grin).

I'm not saying that the "To" field wouldn't be useful on the graymail page, just that the "From" field does contain a unique identifier for the address, namely the tag directly after the first '|'.

I don't actually use the graymail web page for managing spam via sneakemail. I subscribe to the Graymail folder in Thunderbird and can see all the headers I want. I only use the web page when I need to black/whitelist spam that didn't go via sneakemail.

I subscribe to the Graymail folder in Thunderbird

I'll try that, thanks.

I would like to see Graymail display more of the actual message. Content previews such as "You have received the alternative text version of an HTML message" don't do me any good. Sometimes the message appears to be from someone I know but is actually from a spammer who has hijacked their email. If I could see the content (and more of the headers), I could tell that instead of having to deliver the message to my inbox to see the details.

You can see the messages in Graymail by logging into webmail.

Oh, okay, thanks, Mike.

Kind of a hassle, though, to have to open a new tab, log in again, find the message, then go back to Member Tools to whitelist the sender if it's legitimate.
