How long inboxes live, what gets deleted, and how to stay in control.
Inbox is generated instantly with a random address.
Use the inbox for short-lived verification and testing.
Messages and inbox are purged automatically within 1–24 hours.
Deleted inboxes and messages are not recoverable by design.
Forward important receipts or confirmations to a durable inbox before expiry.
Do not use temporary inboxes for password recovery or critical accounts.
Rotate inboxes for repeated tests to avoid stale data and improve deliverability.
If a platform disallows disposable mail, use an approved contact method.
Temp inboxes are receive-only and auto-expire. Avoid using them for recovery emails, banking, or anything that needs a lasting archive.
