A temporary email is live when the page loads. No signup, no password, no phone number.
Classic 10 minute mail dies fast. Free TempMaily inboxes stay up for a full day, then delete themselves.
Verification codes, signup links, and attachments show up as soon as they arrive. No refresh loop.
Use a throwaway address instead of your personal one. Free inboxes are anonymous, receive-only, and short-lived.
Copy the temporary email address generated above.
Paste it into the signup, checkout, trial, or test flow.
Read the message in real time, then let the disposable inbox expire.
A temporary email (also called disposable email, temp mail, throwaway email, burner email, or fake email) is a working inbox you use once and abandon. Sites get a real address that can receive mail. You keep your personal inbox off marketing lists and breach dumps.
People reach for one when a café WiFi portal, free trial, forum, or coupon popup demands an email and you have no reason to stay on their list. TempMaily gives you a free disposable address with no account. Messages arrive in real time. After 24 hours the free inbox and its mail are deleted.
It is receive-only. It is not a bank login, a password vault, or a shield against public WiFi network attacks. For the full picture, read what a temporary email is, how to create one, and whether temporary email is safe.
Temp mail services look interchangeable until an important code doesn't arrive. Six things actually separate them:
Ten-minute inboxes die while you wait for a delayed verification code or a resend loop. Look for at least a few hours; TempMaily free inboxes last 24, and Premium addresses can live as long as you want.
Many services make you hammer a refresh button. A provider should push messages to the page the moment they arrive — one-time codes expire in minutes.
Shared temp-mail domains end up on public blocklists, so picky signups reject them. Check whether the provider rotates fresh domains, and whether you can bring your own domain or use dedicated ones when acceptance matters.
Disposable inboxes attract hostile mail. Messages should be sanitized and rendered with remote images and scripts blocked, so a tracking pixel or malicious payload can't fire when you open one.
Nearly all temp-mail services can't send or reply — providers that pretend otherwise are a red flag. If you need two-way mail on a throwaway identity, you want an alias service, not temp mail.
If you're a developer or QA team, check for an API: creating inboxes and reading verification mail from tests or AI agents is the difference between a toy and a tool. TempMaily ships a REST API and an MCP server.

A temporary email (also called disposable, throwaway, burner, or trash-mail) is an inbox you use once and abandon. TempMaily gives you a working address instantly so you can receive verification codes and signup links without exposing your real inbox to spam.
Yes. Fake email, burner email, throwaway email, and temp mail usually mean the same thing: a short-lived disposable address. The useful part is that it receives real mail. The name is just slang. TempMaily is that kind of inbox, not a permanent Gmail account.
Classic 10 minute mail deletes the inbox after about ten minutes, which is often too short for a slow confirmation email. Free TempMaily inboxes last 24 hours, then delete themselves. Same idea (disposable temp mail), longer window.
Yes, for the jobs it is built for. Free inboxes need no name or password. Messages are sanitized and shown in a sandboxed frame so scripts cannot run and remote trackers stay blocked. Free addresses are short-lived, so there is little long-term data to steal. Do not use them for banking or anything you must recover later.
No. TempMaily lives at tempmaily.co and is not affiliated with tempmaily.com or temp-maily.com, which are unrelated sites run by other operators. Security-reputation warnings you may find about tempmaily.com refer to that separate, now-defunct domain, not to this service. If the address bar says tempmaily.co, you are in the right place.
Free inboxes and every message in them are deleted 24 hours after the address is created. Premium lets you set a custom expiry, keep an address permanently, or restore an expired one within 30 days.
Yes. Incoming messages arrive in real time with attachments intact. You can open or download them from the inbox. Premium raises retained storage to 2GB when you need mail kept longer than a free throwaway inbox allows.
TempMaily is receive-only by default. It catches incoming mail; it does not send. Premium adds auto-forwarding, so messages sent to your disposable address land in your real inbox where you can reply normally.
No. The free throwaway inbox works with zero signup. The address on the homepage is already live. You only create an account for Premium, which is where durable addresses, custom domains, and API access live.
Premium ($9.90/mo or $90/year) turns the throwaway inbox into a persistent mailbox: dedicated premium domains, your own custom domain, up to 10 addresses at once, 2GB storage, no ads, and premium support. Cancel anytime from the billing portal.
Yes, on Premium. Point your domain at TempMaily and generate addresses on it (up to 10 active at once). That helps when a shared disposable domain would be flagged as temporary email by the service you are signing up for.
