The bottomline for me is that I can choose if I give out my real e-mail address or not. If the target site/service is Ok, then I can register with a "normal" address. If not... well, that's the use of any temporary thing: to be temporary and disposable. If I cannot tell a spammer form a honest site, at least I can avoid the risk. Many, many thanks. Great idea!

I realize that there are some honest sites out there which want to capture long term viable e-mail addresses for ongoing communication. However, usually if that fails (as e-mail addresses are an ever changing thing for many people) it is the end user who is inconvenienced by it (they can't get a password reset done, etc..). And the big issue right now, is that while some sites are honest, MANY are not. This is proven out by the 30,000+ spam a day that comes in to expired 10minutemail.com addresses. The end user has no way to distinguish an honest site from one which will sell, share, or lose their e-mail list to spammers or marketers. Until a more secure, trusted, less-spamable mail system is in place, I feel that services like this one, are the only way to really prevent the average online person's inbox from being overrun by spam. I'm happy to entertain a dialog about the advantages, negative impacts, and alternate solutions. Devon Reginald,

I sent a few emails to the temporary address, with subjects, and nothing appeared on the 10minutemail web page. I just tried your site.
