Another online service, another email request, more spam in your inbox. It's a vicious and inevitable circle at the same time, because there are many quality online tools that require email registration as a mandatory step. However, there is a good alternative: creating a temporary email address. One of the best options is TempMail, which offers a web version and apps for iOS and Android.
How many times have you shared an email address? How many times have you ended up drowning in spam, or worse, with your account exposed due to a database leak? Personally, I can only say that the answer to both questions is too many. Unfortunately, the situation isn't improving, and more and more online services ask for an email to grant access.
What options do we have? Registering a new email for each account is a nightmare, so some users suggest 'poisoning the well' and creating a temporary email address. Once you get the address and the registration/validation/verification/whatever data, the temporary email vanishes into thin air, along with the possibility of receiving spam. Fortunately, you don't need to install anything: a quick visit to the TempMail portal is more than enough.
How to create a temporary email address on TempMail
Once you enter the TempMail page, you'll get a temporary email and access to its inbox. It's that simple! The rest is a matter of using the mailbox to register wherever you want and waiting for verification emails. Sometimes receiving those emails can take a few seconds, but I haven't had any issues during my tests, and the Refresh button helps us update the inbox easily. Once you've finished the registration and verification ritual, click Delete to remove the temporary email. TempMail will assign a new one, and if for some reason you don't like it, press Delete to get another.
Another positive aspect of TempMail is its availability as an app for iOS and Android, creating and deleting addresses with a couple of taps on the screen. The premium edition of TempMail removes ads and expands its features (custom domain, multiple accounts, a private address, and more), but the free mode works very well. Don't forget to try it!
