Temporary mail address forwards incoming mails to you

Kesara Wimal — Wed, 13 Jan 2021 15:32:19 +0000

There are dozens of services or apps that require a more or less extensive registration to be used — whether it makes sense or not. So it happens quickly that your own email address is entered in dozens of databases and, depending on the terms of use, is also often used for advertising purposes. If you want to prevent this or use services a little more anonymously, you can fall back on temporary mail addresses. Such services have been around for years and they all actually work on the same principle: generate mail, confirm registration, deactivate mail. The latter usually happens automatically after a time that varies depending on the service. The service altmails belongs to the category of such mail service providers, but without time restrictions and with a response option.

On the website, you can create any number of randomly generated mail addresses. In contrast to the alternatives mentioned, this one is linked to your correct email address. This has the advantage that incoming emails are automatically forwarded to your inbox. In this way it is also possible to answer e-mails: For this purpose, a further random address is generated for each forwarded e-mail, which is then used when answering and is only valid once. If you no longer need a generated email address or if emails are forwarded, you will find a link in every forwarded email, which you can use to unlink the link with your real email address — then all emails wander in digital nirvana.

altmails takes a slightly different route than the usual temp mail providers. It is emphasized that your data will not be passed on. Incoming and forwarded emails are not saved on the server, which means that deleted emails cannot be restored. At the moment the service is completely free of charge, one or the other paid premium feature is planned for the future, which will then also finance the service. Always important to know if you are to trust a free service. I find it very interesting for some application purposes and if you prefer to use classic disposable mail, you can use TempMail as an alternative service.

Now, you don't have to think twice before sharing some confidential data (file or message).

Safenote is the free, fast, and secure way to share files and notes with end-to-end encryption and a link that expires automatically. And also it's a free cloud-based service that is functioning via an encrypted SSL tunnel. Safenote doesn't require you to create an account before start using the service and no password or email required. This free service enables you to send a self-destructing message or file to someone. This means once they view the message or download the file, they will no longer be able to access it again.

And the API will help you to share files and notes programmatically. Integrate it with your website/system when you want to share some data with your users.

Send notes that will self-destruct after being read | Private Note | Privnote

The idea behind SafeNote is simple, yet very powerful: sending a note that can be deleted immediately after it has been read. Remember the self-destructing messages in the Mission Impossible series? Pretty much the same thing, but without the need of becoming a wold-class spy to have this technology at your fingertips.

SafeNote’s practical interface allows you to write a message, and with a single click, a unique URL is generated. You can send this link to the person the message is intended for. When the message has been read, the link is no longer available. As a cherry on top of the pie, you receive an email when the recipient has read your message. If you want to send a file instead of a message, SafeNote also allows you to do so. Do you want to send the message to multiple recipients? You can easily configure SafeNote to determine the time the message shall be available, and during that time window, you can send the link to all the people you desire. If after 30 days the message hasn’t been read SafeNote deletes it, ensuring that your information is not stored in any way whatsoever.

One time URL or Hidden URL?

Have you ever wanted to share an URL without actually showing the exact URL? I mean, just a one-time URL. The receiver won't get a chance to access it again. Also, the receiver is unable to save it, bookmark it, or memorize it and access it.

I know this is something new, something innovative. I'm just asking your support to brand this correctly. Please feel free to share your ideas.

protect your privacy with @altmails email alias

You can protect your primary mail address from unknown and untrustworthy providers. When you give your primary mail address to all of these services and providers, you may get a lot of spam, and it is not always easy to track down where the spam comes from or how you can stop it. So, you do not want to give them your real email address, but you need an email address to sign up! In these situations, you can use a temporary mail address. Temporary emails will also make you anonymous for any of these websites you're signing up, which can serve as extra protection.

Access blocked websites with the Tor powered web proxy

All about tor powered web proxy

WebOProxy connects you to the Tor, the network run by thousands of volunteers around the world. When you access a website, your request will go to our server, which is running as a VPN, and after that, the request will go directly to the Tor network. Because of this mechanism, no one can track your details (IP address, location, etc.) or your online activities. At the same time, your Internet service provider will see a connection to WebOProxy, not to the destination website or the Tor network. For better protection, all traffic to WebOProxy is encrypted so that your ISP can not decrypt and monitor it. This is how we hide your real IP address and take care of your anonymity and privacy. Whether or not the destination website maintains a secure connection, you can be certain that your web traffic to WebOProxy will always be secured.
