HOW TO USE FAKE EMAIL ACCOUNT


"Let them eat spam" - guess this tagline is self-explanatory . This is an online solution has come to protect us from unnecessary spamming . It is kind of use and throw email id provider wherein you can use it without worrying about deleting it .

HOW to use  :
  • Select any username and then your fake email id will be "username@mailinator.com" or "username@suremail.info".
  • Go to www.mailinator.com .
  • Enter your fake email id  into the box at left side of page . Press GO !
  • And Voila your mail is there .
But better check it asap because they will delete it within 24 hours. 
 It solves all the purposes of an email (except sending email). So here is a quick list of pros and cons of this service .

Pros:

  • No sign up needed. You don't even need to register for an id .Just as you like.
  • Use any id name as you like .
  • No need of deleting mails due to space constraints . They will do it for you after some hours automatically.
  • No need to remember any password as there is none . :)
  • Has alternate inbox names . One that you choose and the one(longer) which is there at the top when you check the inbox.
CONS:
  • No security or encryption whatsoever. Don't use it for confidential/important mails.
  • Since there is no password , so all one needs is username to access mails . Again insecure.
  • Mails get deleted automatically within 24 hours (or sometimes sooner).
  • Any mail id can hold only 10 mails at max .
VERDICT :

Although it is a good solution to a vast number of situations But don't rely on it for personnel/important stuff.
