Forwarding aliasesAvailable after sign-in
3 examples

Each alias is for a different purpose. Messages are forwarded to your real email, while senders only see the alias.

All forwarded toYour real email

Senders see only the alias. Your real email address never appears on their forms.

For ongoing email,
switch to a forwarding alias

Temporary addresses last from 3 to 24 hours—ideal when you only need one message. For newsletters you want to keep reading, sign in with your real email without a password, create an alias, and have messages sent straight to your inbox.

Sign in to create an alias

Not for: replying from an alias—forwarding only sends incoming messages to you.

An address that looks real

The address starts with a name, like mayaholt@, rather than a string of random characters. It looks like a regular email address and works with most forms.

Ready as soon as you open the page

Your address is ready the moment you arrive. No signup or forms—just copy it and paste it where you need it.

Receive only

This address can receive emails but can’t send them. No one can use it to send messages as you, and you can’t reply from it.

3 hours, extendable up to 24

Addresses last 3 hours by default. Extend them manually when needed, up to 24 hours. After that, the address and its messages are permanently deleted.

Temporary address, forwarding alias, or your real email?

Each option has its limits. First, think about how many times you’ll need to receive messages, then choose an address.

For one-time use

Temporary address

Good for
Downloading a white paper, signing up for a trial, or receiving a verification code.
Not for
Accounts you may need to recover later—the address expires and messages can’t be restored. You also can’t reply from it.
Keep receiving mail without sharing your real address

Forwarding alias

Good for
Ongoing newsletters or product updates when you want senders to see only an alias.
Not for
Conversations that require replies from the alias—forwarding only sends incoming messages to your email.
For important, ongoing accounts

Your real email

Good for
Banking, government services, work accounts, and any service you may need to recover by email later.
Not for
Forms that ask for your email just to send one document—you may find it hard to unsubscribe later.

Before you fill out a form,
think about how often you’ll need that email

For most downloads and trials, one email is all you need.

  • Software trial sign-ups

    Once you have the activation link and your account is set up, the address has done its job.

  • White papers and reports

    The download link is usually in the first confirmation email. Once you have it, you can leave the address behind.

  • Newsletter confirmations

    Want to read one issue? Use a temporary address. Planning to keep reading? Switch to a forwarding alias.

Get that email in 3 steps

1

Copy your ready-made address

Open the page and your name-based address is ready. Just click to copy it.

2

Paste it into the form and submit

Fill out trial, download, or subscription forms as usual.

3

Come back for the code or link

Messages appear in your inbox. Extend the address if you need more time, then let it expire when you’re done.

Keep the resource. Keep your address off marketing lists.

Frequently asked questions

Will forms accept the address?

The address starts with a name and follows the format of a regular personal email, so most forms accept it. Some websites block temporary email domains; if that happens, use your real email instead.

Can I send email from this address?

No. Temporary addresses can receive but not send email. That’s by design: no one can send messages as you from this address.

How long does the address last?

3 hours by default. You can extend it manually, up to 24 hours. When it expires, the address and all its messages are deleted.

Can I recover expired messages?

No. Use any verification codes or download links before the address expires. For ongoing email, use a forwarding alias.

Do I need to create an account?

No account is needed for temporary email—just open the page and use your address. Email forwarding requires signing in with your real email, without setting a password.

How do I set up email forwarding?

Enter your real email on the sign-in page, then enter the 6-digit code you receive and create an alias. Messages sent to the alias will be forwarded to your real email.
