Frequently Asked Questions

Answers about temporary email, private inbox owner links, alias reuse, expiration, Gmail aliases, and browser-local tools.

What is InboxMade?

InboxMade is a temporary email and browser-based utility suite for receiving verification emails, OTP codes, and launch codes without exposing your main inbox. It also includes local tools for 2FA OTP, Gmail aliases, passwords, fancy text, and ASCII art.

Do I need an account to use a private inbox?

No account is required. Private inboxes use a secret owner link. Keep that link safe because it is required to reopen or delete the inbox.

What happens when an inbox expires or is deleted?

The inbox stops receiving mail and the alias is burned. Burning prevents someone else from reusing the same address and receiving future reset links or verification codes intended for the previous user.

Can I reuse a private inbox?

Yes. Private inbox addresses do not have a TTL and can be reused until you delete them. Messages older than 30 days are cleaned automatically. Public inboxes keep their selected TTL and cannot be extended.

Do local privacy tools leave my browser?

No. The 2FA OTP viewer, Gmail alias generator, password generator, fancy text generator, and ASCII tools run in your browser. Temporary email messages must be received online so they can appear in the inbox interface.

Do Gmail dot and plus aliases really work?

For regular Gmail addresses, dot variants and plus tags are generally delivered to the same mailbox. Some websites may reject, strip, or normalize aliases, so use the generator for filtering and testing rather than as a guaranteed signup method.

Is InboxMade safe for important accounts?

Temporary email is best for testing, trials, launch codes, and low-risk verification. Do not use disposable inboxes as the permanent recovery email for financial, medical, government, or high-value accounts.
