# A throwaway address that receives real mail.

Take an inbox, watch it fill up live, read what lands with tracking images blocked, then let it expire. No account, no password, and nothing to unsubscribe from afterwards.

Ready

no address yet

It lives for an hour, receives up to fifty messages, and is deleted with everything in it when the lease ends. You can pick your own name for it once you have one.

The terms

Deleting a message clears the screen, not the counter. The capacity is a ceiling, not a quota you can spend twice.

Reference

## What you are actually holding

Remote images are stripped out of every message before it is put on screen, so opening one here does not tell the sender you opened it. Attachments are offered as a download and never rendered. Anyone can post anything to an address that has been published.

## Questions this raises

This inbox is the same mail server your real one would run on.

Same delivery path, same parser, same spam scoring, same reader with the tracking images already stripped out. The only difference is the hour on the clock and the domain being ours instead of yours. Point your own domain at it and the mail stops expiring.
