Sometimes we all need an inbox for “five minutes.” Register on a forum, or some other site, only to download the necessary program, or for a “one-time” correspondence with a person who does not want to share his main email. In this review you will get a sufficient selection of services that provide temporary mail for such situations.

In such cases, temporary email services come in handy. You can use them without fear that your main email address will be exposed in spammer databases or used for commercial mailings. Disposable mail can be used in other cases, for example, to send anonymous letters.

All the services discussed below operate using the HTTPS protocol and most have a Russian interface. If one of them does not work, use the next one.

Attention! Do not use temporary email to receive important emails containing personal data or information that could be used to access resources you value. Basically, mailboxes created in such services are public and can be viewed by anyone.

Tempr.email

Tempr.email is an advanced temporary mail service that provides the user with many useful features. You can use a random email address or set your own by choosing one of several dozen domains. For some domains it is possible to use a password.

Mail on each of the created mailboxes is stored for 30 days. Users have the ability to receive letters in text and HTML formats with attachments (up to 10 MB), write and respond to letters, print and save letters, manage their spam list, use a direct link to access their mailbox, and view letters in RSS or ATOM feed.

Among the advanced features, we should mention the ability to use your own domain for mailboxes. In this case, you can choose whether you want to make this domain public or private.

GuerillaMail

This temporary mail service creates for you, when you visit its website, a mailbox, the letters from which are deleted an hour after receipt. The mailbox itself does not have an expiration date, but if desired, you can quickly delete it or create a new one. By default, the email name is generated automatically, but it can be changed by the user. It is also possible to choose one of the available 11 domains if one is blocked on the site on which you plan to use mail.

The service understands HTML perfectly and accepts emails with attachments. GuerillaMail also allows you to send letters and attach files up to 150 MB in size. In addition to the web version, this service has applications for Android (with somewhat reduced capabilities) and an extension for the Chrome browser.

TempMail

When you first visit the site, an E-Mail will be created for you. If for some reason you are not satisfied with it, you can change it using the name you came up with and one of the 10 proposed domains.

You can use TempMail indefinitely. It will be valid until you delete it. The only thing is that received letters are destroyed after 60 minutes. There is no option to send emails.

In addition to the online service, TempMail offers its users extensions for Chrome, Opera and Firefox browsers, as well as applications for Android and iOS. The interface of this temporary mail service has been translated into many languages ​​(including Russian and Ukrainian).

DropMail

As with many other temporary mail services, a DropMail mailbox is created immediately when you visit the service’s web page. With the click of one button, you can create additional addresses with one of six available domains or “multiply” an existing address using a template. Each temporary address is unique and is issued only once.

The service provides the ability to configure the forwarding of letters from a temporary mailbox to a permanent one. You can also enable notifications of new emails using browser pop-ups. To save letters on your computer, you can download them all as an archive or download them individually.

Unlike other similar services, a mailbox on DropMail is provided without any time restrictions. It will exist until the page is refreshed. If you need access to previously created mailboxes, use the “Restoring Access” section, but remember that this way you can only restore email addresses, but not the letters themselves.

The DropMail interface is available in Russian and Ukrainian, displays Cyrillic correctly and works with attached files. But it is impossible to send letters from it.

Moakt

Moakt is a temporary email with a simple and intuitive interface. It is possible to specify the address yourself or use a random one. Mailboxes are public - anyone who enters the same address can view its contents.

All information about the mailbox is deleted an hour after receiving it, but its lifetime can be extended. Among the advantages is the ability to send letters and receive attached files.

Mailsac

Mailsac's disposable email service allows you to create a temporary address with the name you specify. In this case, you can use a public (accessible to anyone) or private (registration required) mailbox.

Without registration, you are only allowed to receive and read letters. After registration, users have the opportunity to create an unlimited number of addresses, save letters, and access via POP3 and SMTP.

Temp Mail Address

An email address consisting of a randomly generated first and last name is created in this service immediately upon entering its home page. By default, you can use it for 60 minutes, but you can set it to a different time – up to two weeks. You can delete the address (a new one is immediately created) or create your own.

A nice little thing - Temp Mail Address immediately offers you a randomly generated password and avatar for use on the site where you are going to register using this temporary mail.

10 Minute Mail

When you enter the website of this service, you will immediately be allocated a temporary randomly generated eMail address. There is no option to set your own or change your email address.

Any letter sent to this address will appear on the 10 Minute Mail page. You will be able to read and answer it. By default, the mailbox will self-destruct after 10 minutes. You can increase its lifespan with a special button, each click of which again sets the counter to 10 minutes.

10 Minute Mail allows the use of HTML, but does not accept emails with attachments. It is possible to reply to letters and forward them. The service has been translated into many languages, including Russian and Ukrainian.

NADA

NADA is a service that provides its users with a “permanent temporary” email account. It will be active as long as the domain on which it is hosted is active. With NADA, you can create multiple aliases and domain combinations for your email, and after using them, delete them if necessary. For this purpose, the service provides 10 domains.

From time to time, developers drop domain names that are too familiar and replace them with others. At the same time, a month before such an event, they inform users about this so that they can transfer their mailbox to another domain without haste.

Despite the durability of the mailbox, individual messages are stored in it for only 7 days, which, however, is much longer than on some other similar services.

Unfortunately, you cannot send emails using NADA, nor can you receive files attached to incoming emails. Another disadvantage is that anyone who enters their name can gain access to a particular mailbox. After all, it is impossible to password protect “your” email here. Among the advantages is the presence of an extension for the Chrome browser.

Crazy Mailing

The CrazyMailing service provides a temporary mailbox for 10 minutes. Just go to his page and you will receive a randomly generated email address (you cannot choose the email name yourself). If the default time is not enough, you can extend its lifetime by pressing the “+10 min.” button the required number of times. In this case, the maximum period of activity of the box is limited to 30 days.

CrazyMailing allows you to accept emails with attachments and displays the Cyrillic alphabet correctly. The website interface has been translated into many languages, including Russian and Ukrainian.

To provide greater ease of use of the service, developers offer extensions for Chrome and Firefox browsers that make it easy to create and use CrazyMailing. Unfortunately, at the time of writing, the extension for Firefox is outdated and is not installed on the latest versions of this browser.

After authorization using social networks, the Crazymailing user receives additional features - sending mail with attachments up to 10 MB, forwarding incoming letters to the main mail, generating up to 10 additional addresses, a button to increase the service life of the mailbox “+30 min.” etc.

My Temp Mail

My Temp Mail is a simple and convenient temporary email service. Go to the main page of this site, click the “Start Here” button and you will be redirected to view the incoming letters of the newly created address. Click, if necessary, on the “New Inbox” button and you will create another address.

AirMail

Go to the AirMail website and click on the “Get temporary mailbox” button so that the service will generate a unique email address for you and move you to the “Inbox” page. Here you can copy the newly created address, replace it with another one and view the received letters.

You can access your mailbox on this service using a unique link, so you can leave the page (after saving it in your bookmarks) and return to it later. But you should remember that AirMail deletes letters and magazines every 24 hours.

Tempail

Tempail provides everyone with an e-mail address that will be destroyed after 1 hour. To receive it, you just need to go to the main page of the site.

Flashbox

Flashbox is a simple Swedish service that provides basic capabilities for creating and using a temporary email address. Just enter the desired address or use one created by chance and go to your inbox.

Letters from the mailbox (which holds 200 letters) are deleted 30 days after the last message was received. There is no option to receive attachments or send emails. Since all created mailboxes are password-free, be careful not to use this mailbox for important correspondence.

Mailinator

When you enter the main Mailinator page, you are immediately prompted to create a name for your temporary mail. Just enter it in the form and click the “GO!” button, after which you will be taken to the web interface of the newly created mailbox. Subsequently, you can check mail coming to this address simply by entering his name in the appropriate field. Of course, there is no need to talk about any privacy here. The lifetime of letters is several hours.

The free version of Mailinator only works to receive emails. The service understands HTML markup and the Russian language, but does not accept attachments (they are simply removed from emails). The paid version of this service has great capabilities (saving letters, forwarding, chat, API access, private domain...).

EmailOnDeck

You can create a temporary email on the EmailOnDeck service in two clicks - the first is to pass the captcha, the second is to receive an automatically generated email address. You cannot change the name of this address or add additional addresses to your mailbox in this service. There is also no ability to send letters and receive files attached to letters, but there is the ability to restore access to the mailbox using a previously saved token. The interface has, among others, Russian.

The EmailOnDeck developers do not set any lifetime for the temporary address. What is known is that it “must be valid for more than an hour.” If you close your browser or clear your cookies, you will lose access to it sooner.

In addition to free functionality, this service also has paid features - custom mailbox names, saving addresses, exclusive domains, secure deletion of logs, private letters, etc.

TempMail

TempMail is another public temporary mail service. This means that if two or more people choose the same name for a mailing address, they will use the same mailbox. And they will be able to read all the letters coming to him. According to the creators of the service, they do not save any information and delete the mail after two hours. The advantage of the service is the ability to receive attachments up to 30 MB.

In addition to the temporary mail service, TempMail also provides the ability to use toll-free phone numbers to receive SMS.

HarakiriMail

The service with the “speaking” name HarakiriMail destroys letters received at the address you entered 24 hours after they were received. You won't be able to set a password for your mailbox here. You can't send emails, just like you can't receive attachments. Pros: Availability of an application for iOS and extensions for popular browsers.

Mailgutter

Mailgutter, like the other sites on this list, allows you to get a free temporary email address. You can choose between an automatically generated address, or enter one yourself. A password is not set for the mailbox, so anyone who enters the address in the form on the main page of the service can view the letters in it.

I implemented a personal temporary mail service here in my spare time. Well, and, as Freken Bock said, I want to tell the world about him. Cramming all the information into one article is stupid and inconvenient. Therefore, it was decided to divide it into three parts. In this article we will talk about the simplest email address generator. We don’t want to invent a new email every time. And we don’t even want to type it ourselves, since we hold a glass of wine in one hand and adjust our monocle with the other. This leads to the task: displaying a random email in a form. When you press F5, the script should show the new address. Reduce the number of repetitions to a negligible minimum. Yes, and one more important detail - humanoidness.
Due to my cranky technical idea, I had to create two working files: random.php and email.php. The first is the randomizer script itself. It is random.php that generates a random email address. Here is his code:

I don’t have much to add about his work, because I commented on almost every line. However, I will note an important detail that was mentioned above - humanoidness. At the output we do not get some random set of characters, like, [email protected] or [email protected]. Who needs this rubbish anyway? After all, any moderator will understand that this is a fake email.
You and I will get something more or less similar to the email addresses that people use in everyday life. This script is based on the principle of generating two types of mailboxes: login+year@domain or login+hyphen+year@domain. The login is generated from those letters, the combination of which would most closely resemble something adequate, and not just a set of characters. Numbers are added to increase variability and (again) plausibility of the address. Here are some random examples that can be obtained by simply pressing F5:
[email protected]
[email protected]
[email protected]
[email protected]
[email protected]
[email protected]
[email protected]
[email protected]
Next, I provide the code for the email.php file - we need it to display the generated email in the form, and with selection, so that it is faster to copy and generally perform fewer unnecessary actions.

As you understand, the main work happens through accessing the email.php file. You just need to click on the address and press Ctlr+C. You can, of course, add some more buttons and whistles. But that’s how it works.

Most Internet users have their own email address. Personally, I have a lot of them, but I also have a main email address that I created for certain needs and which I don’t want to “shine” anywhere on the Internet.

By the concept “anywhere,” I mean one-time sites where, in order to download a file or leave a comment (everyone’s goals are different), we need to register with a real working email address, to which a letter will be sent with a link to confirm registration.

Accordingly, if we indicate ours on such a site, we can safely assume that over time it will begin to receive letters that we do not want to receive (so-called SPAM). Spammers do not sleep, but constantly scan the Internet for new email addresses to send advertisements, phishing links, etc.

So, in order not to indicate our beloved e-mail on such sites and to protect ourselves as much as possible from receiving unwanted letters (spam), services have been developed for providing temporary e-mail addresses (for 10 minutes, for 1 hour or for 1 day... ), which are very suitable for us to carry out registrations on any temporary sites.

TEMPORARY EMAIL

The first on my list is the site at:

https://10minutemail.com/

which provides a randomly generated temporary email address for 10 minutes with the ability to extend it, view emails and select a language.

The second site on the list is:

www.fakeinbox.com

which provides Email for 1 hour, all you need to do on the site is click on the “Create random email adress” button and the site automatically generates an email address for you, which, without waiting for the time to expire, can be deleted with the “Delete E-mail Address” button.

Third on the list is the site meltmail.com (no longer working!), where you must select how long the email address will be active (3 hours, 6 hours, 12 hours or 24 hours), enter your real work email address and click the button “Create Melt Mail”.

After which you receive a temporary email and a countdown of its validity. Now, by indicating it on some website, the Melt Mail service will redirect the letter to your real address and, after the time you specified, will delete your real email address from its database.

Well that's it! Part of the problem of an influx of spam in your mailboxes can be prevented in this way.

The range of uses of disposable or temporary e-mail boxes is very wide. Each service for generating a temporary email address has its own disadvantages and advantages, but they all provide anonymity and the absence of spam.

We create disposable email addresses

Services like Amazon Prime, Hulu, and Netflix allow you to test their services for free for a limited amount of time, but if you don't want to sign up for a paid subscription, don't stop there. However, it is necessary.

In fact, you can continue to use the service for free by using a different email address after the trial period expires. Retailers - both online and offline - also tend to require an email address in order to send their offers in a timely manner, but this often results in an unwanted barrage of spam emails.

Have you ever thought about why disposable tableware has become almost as widespread as reusable tableware - ceramic, silver, aluminum, etc.? Because it is indispensable in solving certain everyday problems: lunch in the office, impromptu party, picnic, etc.

What about email for 10 minutes? Also a very useful tool in some cases. Temporary addresses are indispensable when necessary:

• hide your real mailbox when registering on any website or forum;
• send an anonymous message by e-mail;
• organize temporary forwarding to your current e-mail;
• quickly (without registration) and free of charge receive a fictitious (temporary) mailbox address.

So, let's take a closer look at the most popular services on the Internet that provide email for certain periods of time.

To transfer an email domain name to another site, click the “Copy…” button and then move the cursor to the place (field, form) where you want to paste the email and press the “Ctrl+V” key combination.

All correspondence that comes to the ten-minute email will be displayed in the “Inbox” section. In approximately the same format as in other email services: indicating the addressee, the title of the letter and the time of receipt.

At any time, you can extend the existence of the newly created e-mail for another 10 minutes or destroy it and create a new mailbox. If no action is taken by the user, after ten minutes the mail is destroyed automatically.

Advice! After the mailbox is destroyed, it can be returned using the “Recovery...” option under the message “... was destroyed.”

The online service has a minimalistic design. The panel contains only two control buttons:

• "copy address"- transfer the generated email to the clipboard for pasting on a third-party resource;
• "reset timer"- extend the validity period of the box, set the timer again to 10 minutes.

Plus, 10MinuteMail supports a multilingual interface. To select a language, open the drop-down menu in the site header.

The service with the original name “crazy mail” differs favorably from its analogues in that it allows you not only to receive incoming letters, but also to send messages to any e-mail. To enter the corresponding section of correspondence, just click “Inbox” or “Outbox”.

You can delete received messages. Also in the control panel you will find the “Refresh” button; after clicking it, the page reloads, saving the received data.

To extend the operation of the mailbox on Crazymailing, in the vertical panel on the left, under the inscription “Need more time,” click the “+10 min.” button as necessary. or “+30 min.”

If you want to organize the forwarding of letters to a real (with password) mailbox from a temporary one or quickly change ten-minute emails, register for the service. Authorized users are provided with more advanced functionality.

Temp-mail.org

This way you will get rid of receiving advertising mailings and messages from the services where you registered. After the expiration date, the temporary mailbox will be destroyed, and forwarding to a permanent email will no longer be performed.
