Maildrop
Maildrop provides temporary disposable email inboxes for receiving messages without sharing a real address. It requires no signup or password and supports custom addresses, making it suitable for one-off purchases and website registrations. Developers can use a GraphQL API to retrieve mailbox listings and messages, delete messages, and automate email testing. Incoming mail passes through Heluna antispam filters, which Maildrop says reduce spam by more than 90%. Every inbox is public, so other users can read its messages, and Maildrop cannot send email. Plain-text and HTML messages under 500k are accepted; attachments are removed. An inbox holds at most 10 messages, and inactive inboxes may be cleared after 24 hours or sooner. Mail servers not previously seen may be greylisted, delaying delivery by at least 15 minutes and sometimes up to an hour. Maildrop says it logs email and web connections and does not promise complete anonymity. The service is free and available through its web interface and API.
