What is temp mail?
Temp mail (also written tempmail or temp email) is a disposable mailbox that exists only for a short time. You use it when a website demands an email for a signup, download, or confirmation, but you do not want that site to keep your personal inbox.
This page generates a random temp mail address on the domain used by Temporary Email. Incoming messages show up in the inbox widget above. There is no password and no way to recover mail after the timer ends.
Temp mail vs temporary email
People search “temp mail” and “temporary email” for the same job: a short-lived address. Temporary Email is the name of this site; temp mail is the common nickname. Both mean a disposable inbox, not a full Gmail account.
Unlike long-lived temp mail brands that keep mail for hours, this inbox is 5 minute mail. That is enough for most verification codes and keeps leftover spam from stacking up on a public address.
How to use this temp mail inbox
Wait for the address to appear (or for a short queue if the service is busy). Tap Copy, paste the temp mail into the signup field, then return here. Codes and confirmation links usually land within seconds.
Do not use temp mail for accounts you need to keep, password resets next week, or anything confidential. Anyone who knows the live address can read mail until it expires. When the timer hits zero, start a new inbox from this page.
