Receive mail in three steps

From copying the address to opening the email, with no detours

A temporary email is ideal for short-term signup verification, development testing, and situations where you prefer not to share your regular address. Once generated, the address is ready to receive mail—no account or email client setup required.

1

Copy the current address

Click the Copy button at the top of the page, then paste the complete temporary email address into the website you need to verify. The address is saved in this browser, so you can continue viewing the same inbox after refreshing the page.

2

Wait for your email

The page checks for new messages regularly, and you can also refresh manually. When a real email arrives, it replaces the demo messages and shows its unread status, sender, subject, and content preview.

3

Read it on the right

On desktop, open verification codes, confirmation links, and email content directly in the right-hand pane. On mobile, use the full-screen reader to keep the message from being cramped or cut off by the narrow list.

Common use cases

Use disposable email for short-term tasks

A disposable email is not a replacement for your regular inbox. It works best for clearly defined tasks that only need short-term access and do not require long-term message recovery.

Signup flow testing

Product managers, testers, and developers can use a separate address to complete signup, login, and password-reset flows without mixing test emails into their work inboxes.

Receive email verification codes

When you need to quickly check a six-digit code or confirmation email, the inbox displays it directly. Do not use this for banking, payments, primary accounts, or services that require long-term recovery.

Keep marketing email separate

When downloading one-time resources, trying an online tool, or joining a short-term event, you do not have to share your main address. Let the temporary address expire naturally when the task is finished.

Can’t receive a verification email? Check these four things

A missing code does not necessarily mean the address has failed. The sender’s queue, spelling, filtering policy, and the address’s expiration time can all affect delivery. Checking them in order is usually faster than repeatedly changing addresses.

Check for missing characters or extra spaces

Click “Copy address” again, then compare it character by character with the address entered on the signup page. When selecting text manually, it is easy to miss the beginning, end, or domain.

Wait for the sender to finish queuing

Some websites take a few dozen seconds to deliver a verification code. Refresh the inbox manually first, and avoid repeatedly clicking “Send code,” which can cause old and new codes to arrive out of order.

Check that the address has not expired

Once the countdown reaches zero, the old address can no longer reliably receive mail. If you need more time, click Extend before it expires. If it has already expired, get a new address and request another code.

The sender may reject disposable email

Some services actively block disposable email domains. This is the sender’s signup policy, and RelayTmp cannot bypass it. Use an email address you control long term for important accounts.

Choose the right email option

How are disposable email, anonymous email, and forwarding aliases different?

These terms are often used interchangeably, but retention and intended use vary. First decide whether you will need to recover the messages later, then choose a temporary inbox or long-term forwarding.

Disposable email

Ready instantly with a clear countdown, it is suited to verification codes, short trials, and feature testing. Once it expires, do not use it as an account-recovery address.

Anonymous email

The focus is keeping your primary identity private from the recipient. It may be a temporary inbox or a long-term alias. Anonymous does not mean untraceable, nor does it permit abuse.

Email forwarding alias

It continuously forwards incoming messages to your own inbox, making it suitable for subscriptions and accounts you need to keep long term. It requires sign-in to manage and serves a different purpose from this temporary inbox.

Usage boundaries

What are temporary email addresses suitable—and unsuitable—for?

Temporary email reduces friction for short-term messages; it is not designed to preserve a long-term identity. Before choosing one, consider the account’s value, recovery needs, and message sensitivity.

Suitable for low-risk, short-term tasks

Website testing, downloading public resources, temporary event registration, and one-time confirmations usually do not depend on recovering email months later.

Not suitable for important accounts

Payment, healthcare, government, school, work, and any service containing sensitive information should use an email address you control long term, with security protections enabled.

Save important content in time

If an email contains an order number, download details, or test results you will need later, save them somewhere secure before the countdown ends.

Frequently asked questions

About temporary email and verification codes

Do I need to register to create a disposable email?

No. Open the homepage to get a ready-to-use address. The inbox credentials are saved in your current browser; clearing browser data or changing devices may make the original inbox impossible to recover.

How long can I use the email address?

A new address comes with a default 3-hour validity period, shown below the address. If your task is not finished, click “Extend by 3 hours.”

Why do two emails appear in the inbox first?

The PayPal and Netflix emails are clearly labeled interface demos showing how the list and message reader work; they are not counted as real emails. When the first real email arrives, the demo messages are automatically replaced.

Can I use it to recover an account if I forget the password later?

Not recommended. Temporary addresses expire, so we cannot guarantee that they will receive recovery emails weeks or months later. Use your regular email or a forwarding alias for long-term accounts.

Can I download email attachments?

When a real email includes an attachment, the reader requests it using the current mailbox credentials. Download only files you expected to receive, and perform a security check before opening them.

Will RelayTmp send emails for me?

No. This tool only provides receiving functionality; it cannot send, reply to, or impersonate anyone. Follow the website’s service boundaries and the rules of the service you are using.

Need to keep an address long term?

A forwarding alias delivers incoming mail to your regular inbox, making it suitable for subscriptions, long-term accounts, and identities that need ongoing management.
