For email, anonymity and disposability go together IMO. The main problem you want to avoid is getting spammed or harrassed through an address that you can't afford to turn off. I currently pay Sneakemail a yearly fee for a service that helps me do that.

So I would love to see this API fleshed out with some management features and maybe support for self-hosted MX.

This idea was originally geared towards people building applications that would provide users of their site with an anonymous alias. So that you can get anonymously contacted, and then depending on how it is configured trash the alias. I guess it could potentially work for personal use too.

Sure, I get that. But my point was that I don't see the trashing.
