The message stated: "You are currently on a Free Pro Subscription as a thank you for being a beta tester. This free subscription will come to an end on 5th December 2019. You can still start a subscription now if you wish to support AnonAddy."
When the site's open beta came to an end I sent an email to all those who had signed up. As a thank you, this email let all users know that they would have an additional 3 months to continue using all the Pro features of the site for free.
I then sent 2 more emails shortly before this free subscription came to an end which is shown in your screenshot, giving users the choice to update their emails if they didn't wish to subscribe.
I have also offered all beta users a discount on both Lite and Pro plans.
Let me know if you have any other questions.
Best, Will

All forwarding addresses (recipients) on the site must be verified in order to receive forwarded emails.
That's why I added the additional username feature to compartmentalise aliases and also the UUID aliases.
The UUID aliases all share the same domain e.g anonaddy.me so it is not possible to link ownership of these to any particular user.
A few users have asked for me to create a Docker image that can easily be deployed, however I'm not familar with Docker so I'll have to learn how to do this first.
Thank you, hopefully I'll be able to stay sane!
The other pages e.g. the blog, FAQ, posts etc. are just very simple layouts along with the nav bar and footer.
I'm using Jigsaw[1] which is a static site generator that allows you to use Laravel's blade templating engine, it's awesome.
The admin interface I made myself using a few Vue components, it is a reasonably simple layout to be honest.
Yes the account site where you login (everything at app.anonaddy.com) is completely separate from the landing page (anonaddy.com).
The first is a Laravel app, the second is a static site. They both have different repositories on GitHub. Feel free to browse through all the source code to get a better understanding of how it works. Just let me know if you have any more questions about it.
If you are looking for some help or inspiration with UI design I highly recommend the Refactoring UI book[2] by Adam Wathan and Steve Schoger.
