Temporary Inbox

by dduenker ·

Access a temporary email inbox for disposable email.

Description

This widget uses the service of temporaryinbox.com to create and check throw-away email addresses. It was about time, that someone did this for Opera, and since noone else did so, i had to. It's a pretty good tool, to keep your own mailbox free from spam, if you just want to check out, what this suspicious website is all about. --changelog-- 2007-10-20 - Removed some not working domains and added some new. - added minimal rss ability (more to come)

    Nice. I had an idea of doing a widget for Mailinator.com which runs a similar service but never got around doing it. There's one thing that you could improve in this widget: reading the mail. Since temporaryinbox seems to provide RSS feeds for mailboxes, how about reading the feeds from the site when checking mail and displaying the mails in the widget, instead of redirecting the user to the page.

    Great idea -- I will certainly try this the next time I need a temporary email address.

    : That's certainly a good idea, which i will try to bring to reality in the future
