Why keep promotions separate?

Promotional emailsaren't just one message;
they can last for seasons.

One first-order coupon can mean months of new arrivals, clearance alerts, and member-day emails. Once you give out your real email, it's hard to take it back.

One address per store

Three hours isn't enough

Order confirmations and shipping updates can take a day to arrive, after a temporary address has expired.

Extend it up to 24 hours

Promotional emails can go on for months

Sign up for a member deal once, and your real email may end up on a brand's marketing list.

Separate them with aliases. Disable anytime.

Random-looking addresses get rejected

An address like x7k2q9 is obviously temporary, so signup pages often reject it.

An address that looks like a real email

Three ways Mailtock helps

First

Up to 100 forwarding aliases

Sign in password-free with your real email, then create one alias per store. Incoming mail is forwarded to your real inbox. If a store starts flooding you, disable its alias.

Second

3 hours by default, up to 24 hours

The default duration is enough for verification codes. Need to wait for a shipping update? Extend the address; it can last up to 24 hours.

Third

Addresses that look real

Addresses use familiar name spellings, such as zhouyuqing@mailtock.com, not a string of random characters.

Email forwarding

Need email for the long term? Use forwarding aliases

Temporary email addresses are deleted when they expire. For membership accounts and support updates you need to keep receiving, sign in password-free with your real email and create an alias for each store. Incoming mail goes to your real inbox.

Frequently asked questions

See all questions
How long can I use a temporary email address?

3 hours by default. Each extension adds time, up to a maximum of 24 hours per address. The address and its emails are deleted when it expires.

How do I create a forwarding alias?

Enter your real email on the sign-in page to sign in without a password. No password setup is needed. You can create up to 100 forwarding aliases.

Can I send or reply to emails?

No. Mailtock only receives email. Temporary addresses can't send messages or reply.

Can I recover emails after the address expires?

No. Save anything you need before the address expires. For ongoing email, use a forwarding alias.

What if a signup page says my email address is invalid?

Generated addresses use familiar name spellings and look like regular personal email addresses. Some sites have different rules; if yours rejects an address, click “Get a new address” and try again.

How do I get rid of an alias?

Turn off its switch in the alias list to disable it. Mail sent to that alias will no longer be forwarded to your real inbox.
