Most "fake email" tools give you a string that looks like an address and does nothing. This one generates an address that genuinely works: mail sent to it arrives here within seconds, you read it, and it deletes itself. Fake in the sense that it is not yours to keep — real in every way that matters to the sign-up form.
Typing something plausible into a sign-up form gets you past validation and no further, because the confirmation link has nowhere to land. An address generated here is backed by a live mail server that accepts messages for it, so the confirmation arrives and the account opens.
Press New address as often as you like. Each one is independent, and the previous inbox disappears on its own schedule.
The common case is a single mail carrying a single code. New messages appear on their own — no refreshing — and any verification code inside is lifted to the top of the message with a copy button, so the whole task is two taps.
Turn on notifications with the bell icon if you would rather switch tabs and be told when the mail lands.
If you are testing a sign-up flow, a generator that produces genuinely deliverable addresses saves you from polluting a real mailbox or a shared team account. Custom addresses let you name inboxes after the case you are testing, and the plain-text view shows you what a client without HTML would render.
Because mail arrives over SMTP from your application's real provider, a passing check tells you the whole path works — DNS, provider and template together — which a local mail catcher cannot.
It is not a mailbox you own. There is no password, no recovery and no way to send from it, so any account you register against one is effectively unrecoverable the moment the inbox expires.
It is also not private. Anyone who knows the exact address can read the inbox while it lives, which is why generated addresses include eight random characters — enough that guessing your way in is not worth anyone's time.
The ones generated here do. They are real addresses on domains we run, and mail to them shows up on this page within seconds.
No. This is receive-only, which is what keeps the service useless to spammers and our domains trusted by the sites you sign up to.
