Serious Discussion i think we must have two email addresses to keep security

You should have a few different email addresses for security, just like you have different keys for different things. Think of it like this.

Your "Master Key" Email

Have one email that you only use for the most important things, your phone, your computer, your bank. Keep it super private.

Your "Public Mailbox" Email

Use a different email for all your social media, shopping sites, and newsletters. If this one gets spam or gets caught in a data breach, your most important accounts are still safe.

Your "Hidden Spare Key" Email

Keep one more email address completely separate and private. Its only job is to be the backup for your "master key" email, just in case you ever get locked out.

This isolates risk and protects your most important accounts from public data breaches.

icloud plus has a feature that can create alias mail, if you are a icloud plus user you can use this

That's where I'm at, two email accounts, one for the privacy/security sites and a general email (Gmail and Proton Mail).

You should use at least 2 different email providers, because if your email gets blocked or hacked, you will have a hard time doing anything.
 
I never set out to have six or seven emails, originally it was a good idea to get the ones you wanted before your name was snapped up, so I got the two I wanted with then Hotmail & Google mail, the others have arisen with selling & ones I use for forums etc - One I particularly liked and had for well over 20 years was part of info that was hacked from my pension scheme so I've phased out out. I obviously use different passwords for all accounts though pass-wording is changing anyway. I've had some with ISP#s that when I left they died too so...

Is it safe to use 3rd party service for receiving messages before being redirected toward the 1st party inbox?
I trust Proton as my email provider to begin with. Here's their privacy policy: SimpleLogin Privacy Policy

Firstly, SimpleLogin is open source software. Their servers are located in Germany, Switzerland, Netherlands, and France. Emails sent to and from their servers are encrypted with TLS. SimpleLogin doesn't store emails; they're deleted from the server as soon as they're delivered. Emails that can't be delivered are stored up to seven days to let you decide what to do with them.

I prefer 1st party service alias, such as outlook and proton; no man-in-the-middel.

Fair enough. SimpleLogin is first party if you're using Proton Mail, since the services are interconnected. It also integrates seamlessly with Proton Pass.

Outlook's built-in alias feature is a handy service, too.

Why to use with Proton mail? Proton mail has its native alias feature!
They're basically the same. You don't need to install the SimpleLogin extension to help you when you're already using other Proton services. If you create an alias in Proton Mail or Proton Pass, it appears in SimpleLogin and vice versa. It's the same alias service.

For personal use only, I have a public email address that I've been using forever, which has been leaked ’til kingdom come. I used this for registration for everything until aliases and +address became a thing.

Now I use aliases for everything, except for the ones I don't want to miss (which I might still use +address) and those I can't.

I also have a recovery/2FA "security" email that I only give to important services.
