Many Internet services and applications force you to register using mail. It’s not necessary to compromise your address and then deal with endless spam.
Previously, it was possible to create a new email account on Yandex or Mail.ru every time. Now the procedure has become a little longer, and many resources do not work with Russian domains.
You can use one of the services to quickly create a temporary address - register and forget.
1. Mailinator
The service allows you to create free web addresses that are generated when you receive messages. The principle of operation is incredibly simple - enter any word into the main window and press “GO”.
The service generates two addresses that can be used to register on other resources. And a complete list of all letters received at the address during the day. 
After a day, the mail and virtual address are deleted. By the way, registration is not required in Mailinator itself.
Unfortunately, it only offers one domain with its own name.
Anonymous email service with a large selection of domains. The operating principle is standard - come up with a name and click “Create”.
Inboxes are stored in a general mailbox or on a page like http://www.yopmail.com?name-of-your-mailbox/ 
Letters are stored for up to 8 days, but it is possible to delete them yourself. There is a full Russian version.
3.Hide My Ass!
Free anonymous mailbox that can be used to receive email. Requires registration without entering personal and real data: just come up with an address name and password. 
You can enable notifications about the arrival of new emails that are sent to your real mailbox, or even set a time for this account to “self-destruct.”
4. Crazy Mail
Unlike competitors, it allows you not only to receive, but also to send letters. The mailbox lives for 10 minutes, the maximum message size is 10 MB, and the largest number of recipients is 3.
To combat spam, it adds a header with your external IP address to the letter. That is, the provider’s address is not suitable for secret correspondence.
And for a one-time registration on an unimportant resource, this is what you need. Moreover, Crazy Mail There is an excellent Chorom extension.
5. “Anonymizer” Mail.ru
Allows you to create anonymous addresses for any mail accounts on Mail.ru.
All letters sent to an anonymous address will be delivered to the main mailbox (the main address is not visible to the sender). You can write letters from your main mailbox, but send them on behalf of an anonymous recipient. 
If necessary, you can create several addresses to choose from and get rid of it at any time.
In addition to the standard set of options (automatic account creation upon receipt of a letter), it offers its users automatic confirmation of links.
This will be a particularly useful feature for those who often register with various web services.
NotSharingMy.Info will provide you with a permanent, anonymous email address to receive emails without you having to provide your personal information.
The only thing you need to enter to register is your real email address. All anonymous messages received are automatically saved in your current email.
Which service should you choose?
It is quite difficult to single out a specific leader from the described services. Each has its own advantages that you need to evaluate yourself. Sometimes it is impossible to single out one universal one. For example, I use
- “Anonymizer” for registration on resources that involve a possible exchange of correspondence,
- Crazy Mail extension for Google Chrome if you need quick registration,
- Mailinator for testing and surfing.
What anonymous email address services do you use?
They say that the most permanent thing is temporary. Another confirmation of this is a temporary email. Yes, it is temporary, disposable mail that can become your constant help, if you understand how irreplaceable it can be and what advantages it offers over regular mail. Well, in order not to be unfounded, let’s get acquainted with fifteen good free “one-time mail” services and figure out how to use them.
How is a temporary email different from a regular one?
The first difference between a temporary mailbox and a permanent one is clear from the definition - it is issued for a period of time: days, hours, minutes, or only 1-3 times. After use, the box self-destructs, taking with it all the contents – the user’s personal data, messages and attachments – into oblivion. This leads to its second difference - maintaining anonymity. And the third is the ease of creation and use. On “temporary mail” services:
- No registration required. Or it's optional.
- No need to enter or save personal information.
- There is no need to come up with a prefix (hostname) - it is generated automatically.
Just went in, took it and used it.
For what purposes is disposable mail intended?
Today, every “self-respecting” web resource (more precisely, its owner) sleeps and sees how all visitors press the registration button and willingly enter all the secret information about themselves. Among this information, of course, there will be a personal email, which will subsequently receive kilotons of spam.
Exaggeration? Perhaps, yes, but not about spam. Databases of email addresses are stolen even from respectable sites. Once your email gets into the spam mailing list, it’s impossible to get out of it.
Preventing spam from being sent to a permanent email address (the one we create on the Mail, Gmail, Yandex, etc. domains) is one of the main purposes of a temporary one.
What else will a disposable box be useful for:
- To create multiple accounts on sites where this is not allowed.
- To register on resources that you do not intend to use regularly (of course, if the email is needed only to create an account, and not to confirm other actions).
- To hide personal data from respondents during one-time messaging.
- To transfer confidential files that must be irretrievably destroyed.
Most of these services do not have the function of sending letters, but only work to receive them (so that they are not used by spammers) and do not protect access to the mailbox in any way. But there are also exceptions.
Services for creating temporary mailboxes
The Russian-language resource offers free creation and use of temporary emails with a lifespan from 10 minutes to 10 days. When generating a box (which, by the way, you don’t even need to do, since this happens automatically the first time you visit the site), its saving period is set to 10 minutes. To extend this time, you need to press the “+ 10 min” button the desired number of times. And if you register for the service, you will have access to the function of extending the life of your email by 30 minutes.
Other features of Crazymailing.com:
The service exists as a web version (accessible through a browser) and a plugin for Google Chrome and Firefox. The latter has a built-in notification about the number of new emails.
– a multilingual service for receiving disposable mail with expanded functionality. Unlike the previous one, the lifetime of the email created here can be unlimited - it will exist until you refresh the browser window. Registration is not required to use the site. The mailbox is created automatically the first time you visit the page.
Other features of Dropmail.me:
- Creation of an unlimited number of additional mailboxes on six different domains (to choose from).
- Unique addresses. An address once generated is never repeated.
- Restoring previously used but deleted mailboxes after their expiration date. Unfortunately, no letters.
- Creating extended addresses. It can be useful when registering on sites where the emails for this service are blacklisted.
- Forwarding correspondence to the user's permanent email.
- Receiving emails with attachments.
- Push notifications and sound alerts about new emails.
The service also supports many languages, including Russian and Ukrainian, although the translation was not entirely accurate. Unlike its analogues, here it is possible to create a temporary mail with both a random name and one written in your own hand (custom).
By default, the box lifetime is 45 minutes. If this is not enough, the time can be extended. Mohmal.com also allows you to delete an email along with all its contents without waiting for the expiration period. Its remaining functions are standard for all similar temporary mail services.
– ten-minute service. Simple as can be. The only information field displays only the automatically generated name and the count of seconds until the mailbox is deleted. It also contains buttons for copying the address to the clipboard and resetting the timer. All. To generate a new prefix, just refresh the page.
The service supports Russian, Ukrainian and many other languages.
The temporary email account offers 13 different domains to choose from. The hostname is also determined by the user himself. However, if you don’t want to use your imagination, you can use the address that was generated when you opened the page.
The Temp-mail.org mailbox has an unlimited lifespan, but incoming messages are stored in it for up to 60 minutes unless manually deleted. Buttons for deleting, updating the list of messages, changing mail and copying an address to the clipboard are located in the left panel of the page.
The site interface and all reference information are in Russian.
Mydlo.ru
Mydlo.ru is another extremely simple temporary email web resource. The extremely simple design, which consists of a field with an automatically generated address and two buttons, will definitely not allow you to misunderstand or confuse anything. The first of the two buttons deletes the current email, and the second one copies it to the clipboard.
The lifespan of the Mydlo.ru box is 1 day. The only additional things on the site are a short “explanatory note” and a non-functional feedback form.
The service is no more complex than the previous one. True, there are a couple more buttons here. Clicking “Get temporary mailbox” generates a unique email. After this, a page opens with a field for reading letters and buttons “Change address,” “Copy to clipboard” (email) and “Delete” (letters).
Incoming correspondence is stored for up to 24 hours, after which it is automatically destroyed.
The site interface is multilingual, but reference materials are only in English.
Positions itself as “Spam Mail”. There are 3 different domains to choose from; the user comes up with the host name himself.
Correspondence on the Mailforspam.com service is stored for an unlimited time. The oldest letters (exactly how much is not explained) are deleted automatically. The interface supports 4 languages, including Russian and Ukrainian.
Mail also pleases with its simplicity. Unlike its analogues, there is a captcha (before using the service, confirm that you are a human). One of the unique features is the ability to restore a deleted mailbox if its token (identifier) is preserved. Otherwise, “everything is like everyone else.” Messages are stored as long as the browser window is open. When you close or refresh the page, all data is deleted.
The web service interface is in Russian, reference materials are partially in Russian and English.
No-spam.ws is the simplest one-page resource in English. Three-button. "Go!" button creates a temporary address, “Delete” deletes letters, “Reload” checks new incoming ones. Mail is stored for a maximum of 31 days, the mailbox capacity is 30 letters.
The main difference from many similar Internet services is the function of forwarding incoming letters from temporary to real (permanent) email with adjustable frequency (from 1 hour to 4 weeks). Unfortunately, no investment. If there are files attached to the letter, they are deleted.
The rest of the features are standard. Among them:
- Creating a mailbox with a random (Random) and custom (Custom) prefix.
- Individual setting of the box lifetime.
- Extending the life time by pressing a button (adds 30 minutes).
The Mytempemail.com interface is entirely in English.
Tempr.email
Tempr.email is one of the few “temporary mail” web services with the ability to send letters. Another unique feature is the creation of accounts on your own domain (if the user has one). Moreover, you can make your own domain not only personal, but also public.
Other features of Tempr.email:
- Random and custom prefixes.
- Generating messages in text and HTML formats.
- Delivery of file attachments.
- Lots of available domains (new ones added weekly).
- Forwarding incoming letters to permanent mail.
- Printing and saving letters in EML format.
- Notification of new messages via RSS and ATOM channels.
- Password protection of your mailbox (only for domains with the PW extension).
- Formation of blacklists of unwanted respondents.
- Supports seven languages, including Russian.
- Reference information in Russian and English.
The Tempr.email interface has been translated into Russian. The mailbox lifespan is 30 days.
The service is not as functional as the previous one, but it has everything you need. What’s unique is that it has a built-in chat, which allows you to exchange messages with other users of the site in real time (an alternative to the function of sending letters), and browser extensions. As in Tempr.email, along with the standard ones, you can use your own email domains here.
Other options:
- Random and custom addresses.
- 12 permanent domains.
- Forwarding incoming messages to the user's regular mail.
- Manual and automatic deletion of letters.
The shelf life of the box is 8 days. The site interface has been translated into Russian and Ukrainian.
There is a web version and a mobile application for Android. It is intended for both receiving and sending letters from a temporary address. And with attached files. The maximum weight of an attachment is 150 Mb, and the storage time on the server is 24 hours.
Guerrillamail.com also has a unique feature - a built-in password generator with the ability to store and restore them using a master code.
The rest is standard. The mailbox's lifetime is 1 hour. The site has been partially translated into Russian.
The last service in today's review works in two modes - simple and advanced. Simple mode supports only basic functions, that is, it does the most basic thing that all similar resources do - it ensures the receipt and forwarding of letters to real email addresses. Advanced provides a number of additional features:
- sending letters from several temporary emails;
- masking the names of the addresses from which you send letters;
- generation of one-time addresses using control words (these words are included in the prefix in one way or another);
- protecting your temporary emails by adding an additional prefix (in case there are concerns that someone else may be using your mailboxes).
Using the service in simple mode is available without registration. If you need an advanced one, you will have to create an account.
Spamgourmet.com mailboxes are deleted after a certain number of messages received, but not more than twenty. This number is determined by the user himself.
The site interface is multilingual. Among the languages there is Russian.
When registering, sites, forums, file hosting services and some public Wi-Fi hotspots often ask you to provide an email address, however, having done this, you can soon find a lot of spam, messages about promotions and other unwanted correspondence in your email inbox.
For such cases, there are special services that allow you to create a temporary email specifically to confirm registration on any resource.
It is worth noting that a number of sites do not allow you to specify a temporary email. In this situation, you can try choosing a different email domain.
2. Guerrilla Mail
This service has existed for a relatively long time - since 2006. To use Guerrilla Mail, you do not need to provide your real mailing address, but you can create only one temporary mailbox on the service, which will be valid for an hour.
The service is easy to use and completely free. In addition, Guerrilla Mail has a separate Android application.
3. nada
This completely free service was developed by the creators of AirMail, a popular email client for Apple devices. No registration is required to create a one-time email with nada.
The service allows you to create up to 10 disposable addresses at the same time. You can create an email account yourself by choosing from 10 different domains, or use a randomly generated address.
Letters received to the address are stored for a week, after which they are deleted automatically.
4. DropMail
A simple and convenient service for creating disposable email addresses with unlimited operation time. DropMail allows you to create an unlimited number of mailboxes that will be available until the user refreshes the page.
In addition, the service has a function for forwarding letters. Registration on the site is not required.
5. Mailinator
This service allows you to create a temporary mailbox by specifying any address. Moreover, even if such an address is already taken, the service will still allow you to use it. Thus, users who indicate the same address can read all letters received at it.
The service provides a registration function that allows you to make disposable email accounts private. There are separate tariff plans for developers and corporate clients.
6. Fake Mail Generator
On Fake Mail Generator you can create a disposable email address for free, which will be valid for 24 hours. There are 10 different email domains to choose from.
The service works similarly to Mailinator, allowing you to read messages arriving at the same address.
Temporary email today is required by a huge number of Internet users, but not all of the offered options are convenient and simple, and many are often “stupid” so that it is not always possible to receive mail to a temporary address in a timely manner. From the abundance of options available for online services for temporary email addresses, we are interested in those that are, at a minimum, Russian-language - for ease of use, and, at a maximum, reliable, simple and intuitive to use.
Below I have made a short description of three Russian-language such email services. These are the easiest to use and very reliable options. The sites are extremely convenient because they are intuitive, which makes me happy - you don’t have to rack your brains. In a couple of seconds, you can create and receive temporary mail for yourself without registration. Correspondence received on the online temporary mail services described below arrives instantly after it is sent.
Receive temporary mail at Dropmail.me . This service is convenient because to create a temporary email address, you just need to reload the page in your browser. The second undeniable advantage is this. That you are given an email account not for 10 minutes, as on many similar online services, but for the entire time you have the page open in your browser.
Letters are received instantly, there is no need to register on the service, you can receive letters with attachments (pictures, files). The number of one-time temporary boxes is not limited - just reload the page.
Receive temporary mail at Crazymailing.com . This temporary email address service is, in principle, no worse than the first one, with the only difference being that initially the temporary address is given for 10 minutes. But this is not a problem at all, since you can easily extend the validity period of the box an unlimited number of times, just timely click on the bookmark image at the top left + 10 min. And if you do this several times, you can add quite a long lifetime to your one-time mailbox, for example, one hour or more.
The second serious advantage of this online service is that here you have the opportunity not only to receive correspondence, but also to send it, which is also often in demand. This service also works without registration.
Temporary email on the Temp-Mail.ru service
Receive temporary mail at Temp-Mail.ru . This option for the temporary email address service has something similar to the first option. For example, here you cannot send correspondence, and mail created for you once will always be yours until you forcefully delete it yourself, as in the first service.
If you are a more or less advanced Internet user, then you should be familiar with situations when you need to register on some forum or service site only once. After all, many sites now require registration both to send a message and to work, but it often happens that in the future there is no need to use this e-mail. For example, you need to download some file on the site, and to download it you need to register on the site. Sound familiar? Or you need to leave a question and then just look at the answers. Or registration in different catalogs. In general, there can be many situations. For such purposes, disposable (temporary) e-mails (mailboxes) have long been invented. You can use them to instantly receive your mailbox, register on some site, receive an activation link (and sometimes you don’t even need it) and then forget about it.
To create such boxes, you do not need to come up with a name and password, as well as any additional questions or enter a phone number. In general, you can create it in a second.
Why are temporary mailboxes needed?
In addition to what was described above, these e-mails will help you “not reveal” your main (permanent) e-mail. After all, as often happens, after such a regular registration with the indication of a mailbox, you may begin to receive a lot of mailing letters, both from the site on which you registered, and from completely wrong ones - spam. I think few people will benefit from receiving letters with advertisements or some links to their mail.
In general, you yourself can understand why you need a mailbox for one time.
The main disadvantage of such boxes is that you will not be able to access it later (after deletion). And this can come in handy when you registered on something and forgot the password for it. But this is no longer a case for one-time use and you need to decide in which cases to use such a temporary mailbox and in which not.
Now let's move directly to the services that allow you to create and use temporary mailboxes (e-mail).
The most famous and popular one-time email service. And this is justified. After all, all you need to do is follow the link and you will immediately receive your (randomly generated) temporary mailbox (lifespan - 10 minutes). In the same tab, you can immediately see the list of incoming messages, and if necessary, extend the period by another 10 minutes right there (if there is not enough time). In a special field, you can immediately select and copy your address, and then paste it where you need it and do your business.
When using, you should be aware that this service blocks attachments and if you respond to letters, the Russian letters will be damaged and unreadable.
Good postal service for disposable e-mails. The same as the previous site, only a more beautiful design and the ability to redirect mail to your (real) mailing address.
What's good about the redirect feature? Yes, because you “shine” somewhere there during registration only a temporary and unnecessary address, and all the information you need (as written above, for example, login and password for forums) is sent to your existing mailbox and saved. It turns out that spammers will get a mailbox that no longer exists, and you will receive only the necessary information. Comfortable.
Nice, beautiful, comfortable, modern. Initially, 2 hours are created and the remaining time can be monitored from above
Pay attention to the left panel - in it you can immediately copy the address, update letters, change the mailing address (indicating your login, choosing a service and time), extend the period (1 hour per click) and delete the mailbox.
Automatic generation of mailbox name, mail storage time is 60 minutes, mailbox lifetime is until a new session is created.
A little “crooked” in terms of design (for me personally), but it allows you to store up to 5 days and supports attachments
A simple English-language service translated into Russian. Supports Cyrillic, you can create it with your name (login) and domain (which comes next @). Creates for 15 minutes
Several English-language services that will help you create a temporary e-mail. They are distinguished by simplicity and asceticism. You just need to select a login (name), enter it in the field, select the lifetime and get the address:
Finally, I would like to note that some services and sites do not allow you to register using these services and write that they need normal ones - from Rambler, Gmail, Yandex, Mail, etc. I advise you then either use another service (or domain) or create one email specifically for spam.
