One-Time Email
Instant disposable inbox — receive emails without signup
🔒 100% free · no signup · files never leave your device
Every signup form, free trial and Wi-Fi portal wants your email address — and most will use it to spam you for months afterward. A temporary email (temp mail) solves this at the root: you get a working address that receives real mail instantly, without registration, and it self-destructs after 24 hours. No account, no personal details, no follow-up marketing drip. Modern disposable email services work exactly like a normal inbox — verification codes, confirmation links and plain messages all arrive within seconds — except you never pay the price of handing over your real address to a company that will resell it.
This one-time email tool generates a disposable address in a single click — or lets you pick a custom name — and then polls a live inbox that refreshes automatically every few seconds. Copy the address into any signup form and watch messages arrive in real time: sender, subject, preview and full body, with text and a safe sandboxed HTML view. Attachments are listed as metadata only, so nothing suspicious ever executes. If you keep the tab in the same browser, your mailbox is restored on return until it expires; after 24 hours the address and every message it received are deleted permanently. It's the fastest way to grab a confirmation code without consequences.
Why use One-Time Email
Signups without the spam
Register for a forum, trial or download with a throwaway address — grab the verification link and walk away before the marketing emails start.
Testing your own app
Developers and QA engineers check transactional emails end-to-end — custom address names make sending predictable during test runs.
Public Wi-Fi and download gates
Airports, e-book libraries and template sites that demand an address before access get a disposable one instead of your identity.
Keeping your real inbox clean
Any service you don't fully trust yet gets the temporary address first; your primary inbox stays reserved for people you actually know.
Pro tips
- Pick a custom name (3–24 characters: a-z, 0-9, dots, dashes, underscores) when you need to remember or reuse the address during a session.
- Keep the tab open while waiting — the inbox refreshes every 10 seconds, and the page pauses polling when hidden to be kind to your battery.
- Plan for the 24-hour window: save anything you need — codes, links, order numbers — because the mailbox and all messages are wiped after expiry.
- Don't use disposable addresses for accounts that matter (banking, cloud, primary socials) — you won't be able to recover the password later.
- If a name says 'already taken', append a number or dot-separated word — addressing is global, so someone likely reserved the obvious one.

Frequently Asked Questions
How private is this?▾
No account or personal data is needed — addresses are random unless you pick a name. Mailboxes and all received messages auto-delete after 24 hours, leaving no trail.
Can I send emails from this address?▾
No — this is a receive-only inbox. It's built for verification codes, signups and confirmations, not for sending mail.
Will my mailbox stay if I close the tab?▾
Yes — like mail.tm, your address persists in this browser until it expires: reopen the page within 24 hours and your inbox is still there.
