It can be inconvenient to spell out your @protonmail.com email address when sharing it with others. We’ve created short domain email addresses (@pm.me) to simplify this process.

All ProtonMail users, except those added as part of an organization, can activate a separate @pm.me email address at no cost. For example, if your username is john, you can activate john@pm.me to complement your existing john@protonmail.com address. All users can receive emails at their @pm.me email address, but sending emails from a @pm.me email address requires a paid account. 

When you activate your @pm.me address, it does not count toward your account limit for creating multiple addresses. However, paid users can also create additional addresses using the @pm.me domain, which will count toward your limit. 

Note that the short domain address (@pm.me) linked to your username cannot be disabled or deleted.

Creating your @pm.me address

1. Go to Settings at the top right and click on Go to settings.

2. Select General in the left sidebar. Under the General section, select Activate @pm.me. 

Sending a @pm.me email for paid users

1. To send emails from your @pm.me address, open your email composer and click on the default email address in the From field.

2. Select your @pm.me address from the dropdown options. 

Sending a @pm.me email for free users

Users with free accounts can receive emails at their @pm.me address, but replies will be sent from your @protonmail.com or @protonmail.ch address by default. To send messages from your @pm.me address, you will need to upgrade to a paid plan.
