An inbox address before any account

Forwarding keeps each site on its own alias. Messages land in your real inbox and stay here for 30 days.

Anonymous email and a disposable address are not the same job

People search temp mail, disposable email, and anonymous email for one moment: a form asks for an inbox they do not want to keep. VoidFwd splits that moment in two. The address on this page receives a code or a one-time notice, then it is gone. Forwarding is the other gear, for a site that will write again.

Short inbox

No account. The address is here when the page opens, for 3 hours, extendable, never past 24 hours. Use it for one code, one notice, one form you will not reopen.

You read the letters on this page. Keep the link, or let the clock end. When it ends, the address and the mail go together.

Long forward

If the site will write again, a one-time address is the wrong tool. An alias sends mail to your own inbox and keeps 30 days here. When one site turns noisy, pause that alias.

Sign in once with a 6-digit code to your real inbox. There is no password. The forward link in the header opens this gear.

When you do not want to hand over the real inbox

The form wants a string that can receive mail, not your identity. Three steps, and your daily address never appears on that site.

  1. 1

    Copy the address

    Wait until it appears, then copy it. Do not retype it. A missed dot sends the code into an empty box.

  2. 2

    Paste it on their site

    Use it for a signup you will not keep. A service that will write for months should get an alias instead.

  3. 3

    Come back and read

    A code usually arrives within a minute or two. Open the row. Delete the letter, or replace the address and retire the old box.

When anonymous forwarding is worth opening

Forwarding is not a longer version of this box. It is for an address you will still want in a few months. You can keep up to 100 aliases, all pointing at the inbox you used to sign in.

Applications

Hiring sites write again and again. Keep one alias for the season, and pause it when the search ends. If junk arrives there, you know which application gave the address away.

Orders

Receipts belong in your own inbox. A three-hour address will not be there for the delivery note. Pause the shop alias when the promotions pile up.

Forums and trials

One look, one trial: the home address is enough. If you will need that password later, move to an alias before the short address dies.

How long the address stays

It depends which gear you opened. A temporary address starts at 3 hours. Extend refills 3 hours, but the same address cannot pass 24 hours from creation. Replacing it builds a new box and destroys the old one, so the clock returns to about 3 hours.

If the code does not arrive

A missing code is usually a mistyped address, or a letter still on the way. Walk this list before you keep hitting refresh.

  • The other site must have the full address, including @voidfwd.com. One missing dot sends it elsewhere.
  • Look at the clock. At zero this address has stopped. Take a new one, then ask for another send.
  • Wait a minute or two. Some sites queue the code. The list updates on its own, and you can refresh.
  • If you opened an alias, that mail is in the archive after sign-in, and in your real inbox. It does not appear in this temporary box.
  • If the site asks you to send a letter before it will activate, this cannot do it. VoidFwd only receives.

A few precise questions

How do I sign up for an anonymous address?

There is no signup. Open the home page and the address appears. Keep the address, or the page link. Refresh and a different browser still open the same box until it expires.

Can it receive a login code?

Yes. Login codes, binding codes, and download checks arrive as ordinary mail. Open the row to read them. This box does not offer attachment downloads.

What is the difference between temp mail and an alias?

Temp mail is anonymous, short, and read on this page. An alias needs a sign-in, forwards to your real inbox, and keeps 30 days. One blocks a single signup. The other keeps sites apart for longer.

Does this cost anything? Can it send?

It is free, and there is no plan. Both gears only receive. To reply, write from your own inbox. Reach us at support@voidfwd.com.
