Help FAQ
Why did my verification email not arrive?
Delivery can be delayed by the sender, spam filtering, or disposable-domain blocking. Refresh the inbox and wait a few minutes before creating another address.
Can I use temp mail for password resets?
Avoid it. Password resets and account recovery should use an email address you control long term.
Can I send emails from this temporary address?
No. The service is receive-only to reduce abuse and keep the inbox focused on verification messages.
Are attachments supported?
Temporary email services often block attachments because files can carry malware and consume storage.
Is temp mail private?
It keeps your real email address private from the site you are using, but it is not a complete anonymity tool.
When should I not use temp mail?
Do not use it for banking, healthcare, government services, school accounts, purchases, or anything that requires long-term access.
