Troubleshooting mask limits
You can create up to 50 free email masks with Firefox Relay. If you reach this limit, you will not be able to create additional masks unless you delete existing ones or upgrade to a paid plan for more flexibility.
If you see an error while creating masks before reaching the limit, it may be temporary. Try again later and create masks at a slower pace to avoid triggering rate limits.
