Frequently Asked Questions

Why didn't I receive an email?

There are several reasons you might not receive an email: 1) Some services block temporary email domains—try using a different domain from our options. 2) Check that you copied the correct email address. 3) The sender's email server may be slow—wait a few minutes. 4) Our inbox auto-refreshes every 5 seconds, but you can also manually refresh. 5) Emails older than 24 hours are automatically deleted.

Can I send emails from my temporary address?

No, Mail-Temp is a receive-only service. This is by design to prevent abuse and maintain the integrity of our service. If you need to send emails, please use your regular email provider.

How long do emails last?

All emails are automatically and permanently deleted after 24 hours. This is a core feature of our service designed to protect privacy. We don't offer extended storage, and deleted emails cannot be recovered.

Do I need to register or pay?

No, Mail-Temp is completely registration-free and no payment is required. Simply visit our website, and a temporary email address is instantly generated for you. No personal information is collected.

Can I choose my email address?

Email addresses are randomly generated for security reasons. However, you can choose between "Random" style (alphanumeric) or "Memorable" style (word-based) addresses, and you can select from multiple available domains.

Is my temporary inbox private?

Temporary inboxes are not private in the traditional sense—anyone who knows the exact email address could potentially view it. For maximum privacy, don't share your temporary address and use it only for its intended purpose.

Can I use Mail-Temp for important accounts?

No, we strongly advise against using temporary email for important accounts like banking, social media you want to keep, healthcare, or any service requiring account recovery. Use your permanent email for important accounts.

How do I delete my inbox?

You can manually delete your inbox using the delete option on our website. Additionally, all inboxes and emails are automatically deleted after 24 hours.

Why is a website blocking my temporary email?

Some websites maintain blocklists of known temporary email domains. This is their choice and not something we can control. Try using a different domain from our options, or consider whether the service genuinely requires a permanent email.

How do I report abuse?

If you believe our service is being used for abuse, harassment, illegal purposes, or receiving spam, please contact us at legal@mail-temp.org with details including the email address involved and a description of the issue.
