    Disposable email addresses would be a welcome addition and give PM users more for their money, since these addresses are just aliases, which would not be billed as additional users.

    I have used Blur/Abine for disposable email addresses, largely for providing to the growing number of websites taking a more subtle approach to building the All Powerful Email List, but also for subscribing to newsletters to get the initial discount coupon, or signing up for a second or third free trial if I was not able to make full use of the first (this works well with Blur's Masked Credit Card feature, but I'll limit the scope here to disposable email aliases).

    After a few years, someone at an email validation service wised up and added the domain name of the disposable aliases to its blacklist (not related to SPAM, just a blacklist for emails an indiscriminate marketer would not want in his email collection), so websites that subscribe to email validation services will return an error or simply repeat its request for a valid email. Blur has handled this by introducing new domains, which seems like the best, if not only solution, and not just because it costs Blur a mere 8-9 USD per year.

    The subdomain.protonmail.com is a good idea. If a subdomain gets blacklisted, a different subdomain can be created. Blacklisting protonmail.com would be foolish, since it's only a matter of time before everyone has a PM address. ;)
