Why this inbox is different

Everything below is a property of the code, not a marketing claim. The security model is documented in SECURITY.md.

A real inbox, not a mockup

Every address is backed by actual SMTP ingestion. Mail is parsed, stored, and expires on a schedule.

Token-protected by default

Guessing an address is not enough to read a private inbox. You hold the token; sharing is a deliberate, separate action.

Codes found for you

Verification codes and confirmation links are pulled out of each message so you can copy them in one click.

Untrusted HTML, sandboxed

Message bodies render in a sandboxed frame with scripts disabled, and remote images are proxied so senders never see your IP.

Alerts that stay quiet

Optional sound and desktop notifications, off by default. You choose when the inbox is allowed to interrupt you.

No ads, no trackers

No third-party scripts, no advertising, and no analytics pixels. The page makes no request to a domain we do not control.

Developers

Built for automation

The same inboxes your browser uses are available over HTTP, with a per-key daily quota.

# Create an inbox, then poll it
curl -X POST https://tempmail.indsec.info/api/v1/inboxes \
  -H 'X-API-Key: tmk_your_key'

curl "https://tempmail.indsec.info/api/v1/inboxes/INBOX_ID/messages?limit=10" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer INBOX_TOKEN"

What you get

  • Create, list, read, extend and delete inboxes.
  • Verification codes and links extracted per message.
  • Atomic per-key daily quota with Retry-After.
  • Open CORS, so it works from a browser or CI runner.

Use this for low-risk things only

Do not use a temporary address for banking, financial accounts, password recovery, government documents, medical records, or anything you would not want a stranger to read. A private inbox is protected by its token — but a token you share, or a public link you create, means someone else can read that inbox.

Frequently asked questions

What is a temporary email address?

A temporary email address is a short-lived inbox you can use instead of your real address. You create it in the browser, receive mail in it, and it expires automatically. It is useful for one-off signups, verification codes and testing, because it keeps your primary inbox off marketing lists.

How do I create a temporary email address?

Open the homepage and an address is generated for you automatically. Press "New address" for a different one, pick a domain from the selector, or type your own prefix and press Use. Nothing needs to be installed and no account is required.

Is it free?

Yes. Creating addresses and receiving mail is free and does not require an account or a payment method.

Do I need to register?

No. There is no signup, no email confirmation and no password. An inbox is created instantly and you are given its access token, which is the only thing needed to reopen it.

Can I receive verification codes?

Yes, when the sending site accepts the domain. Many sites check whether an address looks disposable and refuse it — that is the site's decision, not a delivery failure. When mail does arrive, any verification code we detect is shown in the message list so you can copy it with one click.

Can I choose my own email address?

Yes. Type a prefix in the Custom prefix field and press "Use this address". Prefixes must be between 3 and 64 characters, use letters, numbers, dots, hyphens or underscores, and must not impersonate reserved names such as admin or postmaster. If the name is already taken you will be told immediately.

Can I choose a different email domain?

Yes, if the deployment offers more than one domain. The domain selector sits directly after the prefix field, so the address reads left to right as prefix@domain. A domain is only useful once its MX records point at this service; the selector labels one "MX pending" only when our own check has confirmed the MX is not yet in place.

Can I generate a new email address?

Yes. Press "New address" at any time. The previous address stays valid until it expires, so you can switch back to it from your recent inboxes list.
