mail.gw

API

Temporary disposable email API for quick testing and privacy

Overview

mail.gw provides RESTful endpoints for generating temporary disposable email addresses with 10-minute validity. Key endpoints include POST /accounts to create an email account (returns address and password), GET /messages to list incoming messages for an account, and GET /messages/{id} to view full message content (including subject, body, and attachments). Responses are JSON-formatted. Ideal for testing email delivery in apps (registration flows, notifications), avoiding spam during temporary sign-ups, or protecting privacy for short-term interactions without using a personal email.

Example Integration (JavaScript)

script.js JS


fetch('https://docs.mail.gw')
  .then(res => res.json())
