Sign-ups & downloads
Grab the whitepaper or the coupon code without opening a lifelong marketing channel.
Generate a disposable email address in one click. Use it anywhere and watch mail arrive live below - the address keeps working while mail keeps arriving, or until you burn it.
How it works
Three steps, zero forms. Your disposable inbox exists only as long as you need it.
One click forges a fresh temp mail address - no signup, no personal details, no password.
Mail lands in seconds - live, no refresh. Read it, copy codes, download attachments.
Done? One tap burns the address and every message in it for good. Nothing to clean up.
Use cases
Your real inbox is permanent. Most things that ask for it aren't.

A leaked temp address is worthless to spammers - you burned it the moment you were done.
Test signup flows, transactional email and onboarding with unlimited fresh disposable inboxes.
Free vs Private
Free is built to throw away. Private Emails is built to keep - a disposable‑grade shield on premium domains, with a PIN and forwarding.

For the addresses you want to keep.
Prices in USD. Pay by card or crypto. Cancel anytime - you keep the plan to the end of the period.
Works with AI agents
Mail Vanish has an MCP server, the open standard AI assistants use to call tools. Connect it once and your assistant can create a temp mail address, sign up somewhere for you, wait for the confirmation email and finish the job on its own.
Privacy posture
No badges, no seals - just how the system behaves.
Temp mail is erased from our servers on a schedule, and the moment you burn an address. Message content is not retained after deletion.
On by default
Remote images and tracking pixels never load unless you press the button. Scripts in messages are always stripped.
On by default
Message content is never used for advertising or profiling. The product is the subscription, not your data.

The basics
A temporary email address - also called temp mail, a disposable email, or a throwaway email - is a free inbox that works instantly and is thrown away when you are done. You never sign up, never choose a password, and never connect it to your identity.
Mail Vanish generates a random temporary email address the moment you open the page, shows any mail it receives in real time, and destroys the address and everything in it the moment you burn it. It is the fastest way to receive a confirmation link, a verification code, or a one-off download without handing over your real email.
Why it matters
Your real email address is permanent. It follows you across every database, breach dump, and marketing list for years. Most of the forms that demand it - a coupon, a whitepaper, a free trial, a Wi-Fi portal - do not deserve that kind of access. That is why people reach for a fake email address: a disposable email address answers the form and then disappears, so:
Step by step
Open Mail Vanish. A free temporary email address is generated automatically - no signup, no app, no password.
Copy the address, or set a custom prefix and pick a domain, then paste it into any signup form or verification field.
Watch mail arrive live in the inbox below. Open a message to read it in a safe, sandboxed view with trackers blocked.
When you're done, burn the address with one tap - the inbox and every message in it are destroyed and a fresh address takes its place. Forget to? Its mail auto-deletes after 24 hours anyway.
What to look for
Not every disposable email service is equal. A good temporary email provider should:
Mail Vanish does all of this for free, and adds Private Emails for people who want a permanent address they own on a premium domain.
When to use one
Whenever an email address is the price of entry and the relationship should end once you are through the door.
Signing up for a store loyalty card, coupon, or one-time download.
Starting a free trial you might not keep.
Registering on a forum, wiki, or file-sharing site.
Receiving an OTP or verification code for a throwaway account.
Testing your own signup and transactional‑email flows as a developer or QA engineer.
Any "enter your email to continue" wall where the relationship should end the moment you get what you came for.
