Temp Mail Plus

Your address is ready above

There is no form to fill in and no account to create. The address at the top of this page already works. Copy it, paste it into whatever asked for an email, and the message will land in the inbox below within seconds of being sent.

If you would rather choose the name yourself, type it into the field and pick a domain from the list. People often do this when they expect to come back later and want an address they can remember without writing it down.

Why people use a throwaway address

Almost every site now asks for an email before it shows you anything. A forum wants one to let you read a thread. A shop wants one to show a discount code. A tool wants one before it will export the file you already made. Most of those addresses are never needed again, but the newsletters, the offers and the "we miss you" reminders continue for years.

A temporary address ends that. You receive the one message that matters, do what you came to do, and close the tab. There is nothing to unsubscribe from later because the address stops existing.

The same logic applies when you simply do not know who you are dealing with. A download page, a competition, a form on a site you found through a search - none of them have earned your real inbox yet. Giving them a disposable address costs you nothing and tells you a great deal: if that address suddenly starts receiving unrelated marketing, you know exactly who passed it on.

How the inbox behaves

Messages appear on their own. There is no refresh button and no polling in the background, because the page holds an open connection and the server pushes each message the moment it arrives. In practice a verification code shows up faster than you can switch back to the other tab.

Click a message to open it. The body is displayed in an isolated frame with scripts disabled, so nothing inside a message can touch this page or follow you anywhere. Remote images still load, otherwise most newsletters would look broken, but that is all a message is allowed to do.

Nothing is kept

This is the part most services are quiet about. Here is exactly what happens.

Your address lives while you are using it. Ask for a new address and the previous one is deleted immediately, together with every message it held. Walk away and leave it alone for a day and the same thing happens on its own. Nothing sits in a database waiting to be leaked, sold or subpoenaed, because after a short while there is nothing left to leak.

That is deliberate, not an oversight. A service that keeps years of other people's mail is holding a liability, and sooner or later that liability finds its owner. We would rather hold nothing.

What it will not do

Being honest about the limits saves you time.

A disposable address is not private in the sense of being secret. Anyone who knows or guesses the address can open it and read what arrived. That is the trade for having no password and no signup, and it is fine for a discount code or a download link. It is not fine for anything you would mind a stranger reading.

Some sites refuse addresses from services like this one. They keep lists of known disposable domains and check against them at signup. When that happens, pick a different domain from the list - the newer ones are usually still accepted. There is no way to be permanently undetectable on a public service, and anyone who claims otherwise is selling something.

Finally, never use a temporary address for anything you may need to recover. Banking, government, work, a shop that holds your order history - all of those need a real inbox, because the recovery email is the key to the account. Use this for the noise, not for anything that matters.

Sending is not part of it

You can receive here, not send. That keeps the service useful for verification codes and unusable for spam, which is why the addresses keep working. A service that lets anyone send anonymous mail gets its domains blocked within weeks, and then it is useless for everyone.
