How to Use Gmailnator.
A temporary Gmail address protects the inbox you actually care about. Here is the full flow: generating an address, using it on a signup form, reopening it later, and creating a batch of addresses at once.
Generate an address and open its inbox
Open the Emailnator homepage. An address is generated for you automatically; click Generate New if you'd like a different one, then click Go! to open its inbox.
Copy the address and use it on the signup form
Click Copy at the top of the inbox, then paste that address into the email field on the site you're signing up for and submit the form like normal.
Read the incoming verification email or code
Verification links and one-time codes arrive in this inbox automatically, usually within seconds. Click Reload if a message hasn't shown up yet.
Click Custom email on the homepage
Need the same inbox again later? Open the homepage and click Custom email to reveal a small form under the generator.
Paste the exact address and click Go
Paste the exact address Gmailnator generated for you before and click Go! to reopen its inbox. This only works for addresses Gmailnator already generated: a made-up address won't connect to anything.
To make sure an address is easy to find again, use Export on the inbox page to save it to a text file, or keep the tab open: closing it doesn't delete the inbox, only 24 hours without activity does.
Pick a count and press Generate New
Choose how many addresses you need, up to 100 at a time, and press Generate New.
Open any address from the list
Every generated address appears in the list below. Click one to open its live inbox in a new tab, the same as any single generated address.
Heads up: every inbox on this site is public. Anyone with the address can open it, so never use a temporary Gmail address for anything tied to your real identity: banking, government IDs, or other sensitive accounts. For a private inbox, see Gmailnator Premium.
