## Web interface
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It may seem undeveloped or outdated to some. But it has the advantage of simplicity and small amount of code and bugs, which increases [security.md] and [privacy.md]. But it is better to use email clients and disable the web interface in SelfPrivacy App. This will reduce the attack surface and the risks of hacking.

## Tips
|
||
|
|
- Email [over 50 years old](https://habr.com/ru/company/timeweb/blog/580830/). In IT, it's a sign of technology maturity and reliability.
|
||
|
|
- Email, the most popular way to get infected with viruses, after installing them yourself with unlicensed software and cracks.
|
||
|
|
- Beware of phishing, it can rob you of your savings and control over your digital life.
|
||
|
|
- Create filter directories for different purposes. This will help protect [against phishing](https://cisomag.eccouncil.org/last-11-email-accounts/) and cluttering your inbox. Examples:
|
||
|
|
- `user-w@domain.com` - for registering with web services
|
||
|
|
- `user-shops` - for web-stores
|
||
|
|
- `user-pay` - payment systems
|
||
|
|
- `user-forum` - forum notifications
|
||
|
|
- Use aliases for questionable services or one-time needs, such as `user+tmp@domain.com`. By aliases convenient to filter and mass delete mails. It is also convenient to find out exactly where your mail was leaked from.
