I just run: al <name for the alias> and get a new mail redirecting all mails to my main inbox.

Why?

You might want to hide your mail from websites where you register, as they might sell your mail address (which is then used to profile or spam you), they might get hacked and you get tons of spam, or they just spam you right away. An alias mail can be easily disabled and tada, finished, no more wories, no more mails from that address (and the site you gave it to) without having to change your whole mailbox …

TLDR; Me renting about mail, you can skip to Options, if you don’t wanna read it, because you already know

Mail usually totally sucks, you register somewhere for free, like gmail or whatever, and need to provide tons of personal data + have them scan your mails (not sure if they openly admit it tbh, but I believe they do even if claimed otherwise…). Mails are horrible for privacy … They are often unencrypted (except if you set up PGP and your communication partner also uses it, but almost no one except in the privacy corner does so …). There are some providers who don’t ask you for as much, like Proton. Still it sucks, you can’t easily move provider etc. Lets say they decide to charge everyone one day … Or change their privacy policy, or make some controversal tweets … and you want to distance yourself from them.
