eTempMail creates disposable email inboxes instantly, with no personal details required. Hiding your real address during signups, newsletter subscriptions, or file downloads helps protect you from spam, intrusive advertising, data breaches, and phishing attempts. Every address is generated in seconds β€” no registration, no password, no credit card.

Each address is active for 10 minutes by default, and a countdown timer appears on the homepage. When the time runs out, the address and all its messages are automatically deleted from our servers. You can extend the timer at any time before it expires.

Before the timer ends, click the 'Extend to 20 Minutes' button on the homepage. Each click adds 20 minutes to your session. You can extend as many times as you need, so you always have enough time to receive verification links or one-time codes from slow-sending services.

Every temporary address is generated alongside a unique 32-character Recovery Key. If you close your browser tab, your session expires, or the timer runs out, you can enter this key in the 'Recover Email' feature on the homepage to restore the exact same address and access any undeleted messages. Always save your Recovery Key before leaving the page.

Besides standard .com and .net domains, eTempMail provides temporary addresses on academic-pattern domains such as .edu.pl. Many software platforms, developer tool providers, and online learning services use automated domain checks to grant access to student tiers. A temporary .EDU address passes these checks instantly, making it useful for testing academic verification flows, accessing developer bundles, and evaluating educational software trials.

No. eTempMail is a receive-only service. You cannot send outgoing emails from your temporary address. Blocking outbound mail prevents spam abuse and protects the domain reputation, which ensures that incoming verification messages, OTP codes, and confirmation links continue to arrive quickly and reliably.

Yes. Each address is generated with a randomised identifier tied only to your current session. No IP addresses, browser fingerprints, or personal identifiers are logged. Only someone in possession of your secret Recovery Key can view or restore the inbox. All messages are permanently deleted when the session ends or the timer expires.

Yes. When you open a message in your inbox, any attachments β€” including documents, images, archives, and PDF files β€” can be previewed and downloaded with a single click. There are no file-size restrictions for standard verification emails.

Yes. eTempMail is 100% free with no subscription tiers, hidden fees, credit card requirements, or account registration. You can create as many temporary addresses as you need, switch domains freely, and extend your session timer unlimited times β€” all at no cost, forever.

Click the red 'Delete' button next to your email address on the homepage. This clears the current mailbox immediately and generates a brand-new random address with a fresh 10-minute timer. You do not need to wait for the existing timer to expire β€” deletion is instant.
