Long-term forwarding
Need an inbox for the long term? Create a forwarding alias

Frequently asked questions
Temporary email FAQs: answers to common questions
What should I do if my temporary inbox doesn’t receive a verification code?
Wait a few seconds—the inbox refreshes automatically. If the code still doesn’t arrive, check that you pasted the full address. Some websites block disposable email domains. Try a different address or use a forwarding alias instead.
How long does the address last? What happens to emails when it expires?
Addresses are valid for 3 hours by default. Click “Extend” to keep yours longer. When it expires, the address and emails are permanently deleted and can’t be recovered. Don’t use a temporary address as the only email for an important account.
Can I use a temporary email to sign up for Steam?
Yes. You can receive Steam sign-up and login codes. Since gaming accounts may involve purchases and account recovery, we recommend using a forwarding alias for long-term access. See our guide to getting verification codes for gaming accounts.
Can anyone else see my inbox?
Your inbox can only be accessed with the credentials stored in this browser, and the address is randomly generated. Don’t use it for sensitive information such as banking or identity documents.
Is this the same as a 10-minute email or a virtual email address?
They’re all types of disposable email. The difference is how long the address lasts and whether you can extend it. TurboFwd addresses last 3 hours by default and can be extended, giving you more time than a 10-minute email.
