# Temporary addresses

An address that works for a fortnight and then stops, so a signup cannot follow you.

## Not yet

> Catch-all already gives you a throwaway address for every signup, but it lives as long as the domain does.

## Details

- Not shipped. Catch-all already gives you a throwaway address for every signup, but it lives as long as the domain does.
- The plan is an expiry on the address itself rather than a rule in a filter: past the date, mail is refused at the door instead of arriving and being hidden.
- Generated at the point you need one, and listed with what it was for and when it dies.
