Free, temporary email aliases for testing and temporary use without registration required
Mailinator is a free, disposable email service launched in 2004 that allows users to create email aliases on the fly without registration. Users simply go to the Mailinator website, choose an email alias ending in @mailinator.com, and can then use that address to receive email.
Some key features of Mailinator include:
Mailinator can be useful for testing websites or applications when you don't want to provide your real email address. It is also used for creating temporary accounts for sites that require email validation. The disposable and private nature allows more privacy and can help avoid spam to your real inbox.
Some limitations are that there is no ability to send emails from Mailinator addresses. Also, the temporary and public nature means it should not be used for sensitive or private communications. But for simple test and validation purposes, Mailinator provides a handy disposable email option.
