About the project

A smaller footprint for one-off email.

TempMail is a simple interface for a temporary inbox. It is designed to help people separate low-stakes sign-ups from an everyday email address.

How it works

When you open the mailbox, TempMail calls the Guerrilla Mail JSON API from a Cloudflare Pages Function. Guerrilla Mail creates and manages the address and its messages. This site does not operate its own mail server.

What it is—and is not

A disposable email address can reduce unwanted follow-up to a personal inbox. It is not an anonymity service, a secure mailbox, or a substitute for an address you need to retain. Messages are held by the provider, and other users may be able to access an address after it becomes available again.

Design principles

• Explain the service and its limits plainly.
• Keep the interface lightweight and usable on small screens.
• Do not add tracking scripts or retain message contents in this application.
• Use the provider's documented operations rather than pretending unsupported actions work.
