Disposable Email Addresses

As their naming suggests, these addresses are intended to be used and discarded. Disposable email addressing (DEA) refers to an approach where a unique email address is used for every contact or entity. The benefit is that if anyone compromises the address or utilizes it in connection with email abuse, the address owner can easily cancel (or "dispose" of) it without affecting any of their other contacts.

Due to the temporal and disposable nature of these email addresses, sending to them is not advised. The following shows how many of these Disposable Email Addresses were found in your list.

Anonymous Throwaway Email Addresses

When you sign up for something on the Web with a disposable email address, you don't use your real email address but an alias of it. Every alias is created specifically for a site or mailing list, and the disposable email address becomes associated with it.

By default, all aliases of your real email address forward any mail to that real address, just as if you had used your primary email address in the first place.

But as soon as spam trickles in, the difference shows. Since every disposable email address is given only to one site and associated with it, the source of spam can be identified easily.

Temporary Email Addresses

Perhaps the most well-known example of a disposable address, temporary addresses function for a period of time before becoming inactive. The time can vary from a specified length of time up until when you restart your browser or computer. By default, all aliases of your real email address forward any mail to that real address, just as if you had used your primary email address in the first place.
