Support for Multiple Login Emails #2717

Summary

I would like to suggest an enhancement to DuckDuckGo's email protection feature that allows users to log in with multiple email addresses. This would provide a backup option in case one email becomes inaccessible. For email forwarding, all emails could still be forwarded to a single designated primary email address.

Motivation

This feature would support use cases where a user may lose access to their primary email account, such as in the event of security issues, accidental deletion, or technical problems. The expected outcome is a more reliable and secure service where users have peace of mind knowing they won’t lose access to their DuckDuckGo email protection account. While some services allow multiple login methods or backup emails, this feature would enhance DuckDuckGo’s current security without changing the core forwarding functionality.

Additional context

This is a "nice to have" feature that could benefit users who rely on DuckDuckGo's email protection service for privacy and security. It would be particularly useful for users who use their DuckDuckGo email across multiple services. Although the forwarding feature would remain unchanged by this suggestion, it could prevent users from losing their protection should their email become inaccessible.

Any ideas on how to block the on line cash machine or web site funnels from a main email account? My influx in my inbox is astronomical. I'm missing important emails due to the spam.
