In their own words

10 Minute Mail

10 Minute Mail provides disposable email addresses for website sign-ups, letting you receive messages without sharing your regular address. Incoming mail appears automatically on the webpage, where you can read it and open links; replies and forwarding to a personal account are also supported. An address expires after 10 minutes, and its countdown can be reset for another 10 minutes. You do not need to register or provide information to get an address. The free plan costs nothing and includes a temporary address with the resettable timer. The service lists Android, iOS, and web platforms, along with custom domains and attachments; inbox protection is listed as none. Its security information says session data and email stay in RAM, are erased when the session ends, and are protected in transit with HTTPS/TLS. The privacy policy also says it may collect usage details such as IP address, browser information, visit times, and pages visited, and describes third-party tracking and advertising cookies. The FAQ advises against using it for important accounts that may need password resets because the address expires.

EmptyInbox

EmptyInbox provides disposable email inboxes for AI agents and developers through a REST API, an MCP server and a web inbox. A new address can be created for each task or agent run. Messages can be polled, or received through the MCP wait_for_message flow, which can extract verification codes. The web inbox uses passkey sign-in and displays extracted codes and links alongside messages. Each inbox creation uses one credit; receiving, listing and reading messages are free. Messages are deleted automatically after seven days. EmptyInbox receives email only and has no sending endpoint or SMTP credentials. Listed integrations include MCP-compatible agents, OpenAI GPT Actions, LangChain, CrewAI and OpenAPI-compatible frameworks; workflow guides cover Playwright, Cypress, n8n and LangChain. The free plan includes five inbox credits and REST API and MCP access. One-time top-ups start at 1.00 USD for 10 credits, payable by Bitcoin or USDT. The project is open source under the MIT license, and questions go through GitHub issues.
