Short domain (@pm.me) email addresses
Short domain email addresses make it easier to type out your Proton Mail email address and share it with others.
Anyone on a paid Proton Mail plan can activate an @pm.me(nuova finestra) email address, except for users in a Proton organization.

How it works
When you activate your short domain:
- Both addresses can be used to send and receive emails. For example, the user Eric Norbert can use both eric.norbert@protonmail.com and eric.norbert@pm.me.
- Once activated, a short domain address (@pm.me) can’t be disabled or deleted.
Your short domain address doesn’t count toward your account address limit. However, additional addresses created with the @pm.me domain will count toward your limit.
Activating your @pm.me address
1. Sign in to your Proton Account at mail.proton.me(nuova finestra).
2. Go to Settings → All settings → Identity and addresses. Under Short domain, click Activate username@pm.me.
Sending an email from your @pm.me email address
1. Go to your Proton Mail inbox and click New message to open the email composer.
2. Select your @pm.me address from the dropdown options in the From field, write your message, and click Send.
Short domain addresses are not available with Proton Free
To activate your @pm.me address, you’ll need to upgrade to a paid plan.
If you activate your short domain address on a paid plan and then downgrade to Proton Free, your @pm.me address will be disabled and unavailable for use. To send emails from your @pm.me(nuova finestra) address again, you’ll need to upgrade to a paid Proton Mail plan.
Note: In the past, you could activate your @pm.me(nuova finestra) address on a Proton Free plan, but only to receive emails. If you have a receive-only @pm.me(nuova finestra) address, you’ll still need to upgrade to send emails from your short domain address.
