Temp mail, short for temporary mail, refers to an online service that provides users with temporary email addresses. These email addresses are typically used for short-term purposes, such as signing up for a website or receiving verification emails, without having to use a personal or permanent email address. The primary purpose of temp mail is to maintain user privacy and prevent spam or unwanted emails from cluttering one's primary inbox. Users can generate a temporary email address through these services without any registration or personal information required. Temp mail addresses are usually disposable and self-destruct after a certain period, ranging from a few minutes to a few hours, depending on the service provider. Once the temporary email address expires, all emails sent to that address are no longer accessible, ensuring the user's privacy and security.
