Auto-purge after expiry

1. OTP banner, live poll

Paste the address, wait for the code. The inbox polls and WebSockets push new mail. Matching OTPs get a one-click copy banner.

2. One dedicated domain

New addresses are @mailsbyte.online. temp.mailsbyte.me still works. Premium can pick a custom local-part or alias.

3. Timed purge, not zero-log

Mail and the box are deleted when TTL ends. Accounts, cookies, ads, and short rate-limit counters still exist — see the privacy policy.

4. Premium restore keys

Premium keys stay valid for 3 days so you can reopen the same address. Free and guest boxes expire for good after 30 minutes.

5. VirusTotal on demand

Scan a link or attachment when you open it. Use MailsByte’s key or store your own in Account → Protection.

6. Developer API keys

Signed-in accounts mint mb_live_ keys. Reads are free. Create costs 1 credit. New accounts earn starter credits. The $15 / 2,000 pack is listed; checkout is not live.

Knowledge BaseFAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

◆ What is a Temporary Email Address?

A temporary (or disposable) email address is a short-term mailbox that allows you to receive verification emails, OTP codes, and downloads without exposing your real personal email address to marketing spam or data breaches.

◆ How long does a temporary email address last?

Guest and free boxes last 30 minutes, then mail is deleted. Premium can pick 10 minutes, 30 minutes, or 1 hour, and keeps a restore key for 3 days.

◆ Which domain do addresses use?

New mailboxes are @mailsbyte.online. We still accept @temp.mailsbyte.me. Receive-only. We do not issue Gmail or Outlook addresses.

◆ Are my received emails kept private & secure?

Mail is stored only until the box expires. If you sign in we keep your account, plan, and API keys. Free pages may show Google AdSense. Scans you start send the URL or file hash to VirusTotal. Full detail is on the Privacy page.

◆ How does the Pay-As-You-Go Developer API work?

Sign in, open Account → Developer, and create an mb_live_ key. Use Authorization: Bearer on /api/v1. Create costs 1 credit. Reads are free. Earn starter credits; the $15 / 2,000 pack is listed but not billed yet.

◆ Will this site show ads?

Free pages may show Google AdSense after Google reviews the site. Ads stay off Premium. We do not sell inbox contents. See About, Privacy, and Terms.
