# GetaTempMail > GetaTempMail (https://getatempmail.com) is a free temporary email service by BLOCIFY LLC. It creates a disposable, receive-only inbox with no signup, through independent email sources (ten integrations; availability varies), and keeps a session for one hour. It is meant for one-time downloads, newsletters, verification codes and email testing, not for private or important accounts. Key facts: - Free, no account, no personal email address required. - Receive-only: messages can be read and copied, but not sent or replied to. Deletion depends on the source; TempMailPortal and TempMail.lol support local hiding only. - The GetaTempMail session lasts one hour; each upstream provider has its own retention. - Public disposable inboxes are not confidential: anyone who knows an address may read its mail at the provider. - HTML email is sanitised and shown in an isolated frame with scripts, forms and tracking images blocked. - Mail.gw is paused by default. The source menu shows configured availability, not guaranteed uptime. - Editorial library last updated 2026-10-22. ## Core pages - [Free Temporary Email & Disposable Inbox](https://getatempmail.com/): Create a free temporary email address with no signup.
