iCloud+, Hide My Email doesn't work any more Hi, Can somebody help me with Hide My Email? I did create a temporary email on Hide My Email and It did work for a longtime, but now it doesn't work any more. I did several test by sending mail from another email account, sending verification codes, the mail is send but it doesn't receive in the forwarded email account, not in the spam or junk folder, also I changed the forward email address, but still it doesn't work. Deactivating and activating didn't help. So, anybody familiar with this problem and is there a working fix for it? Thanks!

hide my emails without icloud+ I don’t have any icloud plus account but it seems sign in with apple still lists hide my email as an option and another account was using privaterelay.appleid.com rather than icloud.com as its aliased address is there anything that can be done to remove this stuff?

uhhhhh I just wanted Apple to know this is happening as I feel like this isn't okay So MusicNotes (who have done some slightly shady things in the past) has written a system which prevents iCloud's Hide My Email system from working. I feel like this might be something Apple should sort out fast before other companies figure out how to nullify one of the best anti-spam systems on the market right now.

Hi CooperDActor,
