Show HN: MiniMail – Disposable Email Service for Everyone(minimail.eu.org) |
There's sort of a race condition between how quickly new "anonymous" email services appear and how quickly they are banned by other sites.
This isn’t a redirect to your existing email a-la-iCloud+ “Hide My Email”. You close the tab and the address is gone.
Like bugmenot accounts that only last a day or so.
Or ar least I'm assuming that's a primary use case for something like this.
Also, 99 cents a month for the cheapest plan isn’t too bad for everything it gives you. If you’re in the iOS/Apple ecosystem, it’s a worthwhile purchase.

What else would one need from a disposable email?

Paced Email is a productivity tool with the ability to add team members, rules, etc and paces your mail into regular digests.
Vend Email is similar to Firefox Relay but has the added benefit of email forwarder transferability to other users.

No one would dare block @icloud.com.
Also have you consider plus addresses or . addresses ("." is preferred if your email provider supports it -- harder to assume that you can just remove the dots for downstream spammers).
[EDIT] Did some quick searching, and the F/OSS community has delivered! There are at least two you could use:

They're simpler, and maddy (at least) has an S3 backend now.
Point being that I image many mail providers offer such a thing
Here's a video demo of the inbox for your domain @ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EyBIpO5VkLk
Alternatively just set up catch-all on your existing email for the domain, no extra apps needed.
A domain + Cloudflare Email Forwarding (with catch-all)
or
A domain + Catch-all on my GSuite (or Workspace, whatever it's called now...) subscription
It's a subtle difference.
The services that new or don't have much traction aren't blocked yet.
Sorry for the "lmgtfy" type of answer, but I generally do that search then pick a site at random.
I think I tried with it with Twitter, Instagram and Google (when they asked me for a phone number and I didn't want to give my real one); this was about two years ago. Does anyone have better results?
If you just don't want to give out your number you could get a second one? Nowadays with eSim it should be easy to get a "pay as you go" number and only ever receive sms.
As long as you expect to only use the number once then they should be fine.
