Who runs this

Geek Mails is built and operated by Sahil Ahmed. It is a personal project rather than a business: there is no team behind it, no investor, and no support desk. Questions and requests go to admin@geekmails.online and are answered by one person.

Most temporary-mail services fail in the same two places. Their addresses stop working, because they run their own domains and signup forms learn to reject them. And they oversell their privacy, promising anonymity while quietly retaining everything.

This one addresses the first problem by issuing addresses on a real Gmail mailbox — see how it works — and addresses the second by refusing to make the promise. Operators can read the mail. That is written on the FAQ, in the privacy policy, and here.

Out of pocket. There is no charge, no paid tier, no advertising, no affiliate links, and no sale of data to anyone. The running costs are a database, a small server, and Gmail accounts that already existed.

The practical consequence is that nothing here is guaranteed. A free service run by one person can go down, and the terms promise nothing about availability on purpose rather than by omission.

If an address issued by this service has been used to harass you, to defraud you, to evade a ban on your platform, or to sign up for your service in bad faith, write to admin@geekmails.online with the address in question and any relevant headers.

Addresses can be, and are, deleted. Operators of other services who want to block addresses from here can also get in touch — we would rather be blockable by anyone who wants to block us than pretend to be undetectable.

Send the temporary address in question to admin@geekmails.online and it will be removed along with its mail. Because the service holds no identifying information about you, a request usually cannot be verified beyond your knowing the address — a trade-off explained in the privacy policy.
