HI!
Does anyone know any free service that can create multiple fake/virtual email inboxes to test my app’s sending iteration?
I need to test that everything is working correctly without sending multiple times testing emails to real accounts.
Thanks!!
Chat GPT solved my question
Yes, there are several free services that allow you to create multiple fake/virtual email inboxes for testing purposes. Here are a few options you can consider:
- Mailinator (https://www.mailinator.com/): Mailinator provides free, disposable email addresses that can be used for testing purposes. You can create as many email inboxes as you need and access them through the Mailinator website or API. There’s no need to sign up for an account, and all inboxes are public, so anyone can access them.
- Guerrilla Mail (https://www.guerrillamail.com/): Guerrilla Mail offers free, temporary email addresses that can be used for testing. You can create an unlimited number of email addresses, and all messages are automatically deleted after one hour. You can access your inbox through the Guerrilla Mail website or API.
- TempMail (https://temp-mail.org/): TempMail provides free, disposable email addresses that can be used for testing. You can create as many email inboxes as you need, and all messages are automatically deleted after a set period of time. You can access your inbox through the TempMail website or API.
- 10 Minute Mail (https://10minutemail.com/): 10 Minute Mail provides free, temporary email addresses that last for 10 minutes. You can use these addresses to test your app’s sending iteration, and all messages are automatically deleted after 10 minutes. You can access your inbox through the 10 Minute Mail website or API.
These services are all free to use and should provide you with the ability to test your app’s sending iteration without sending multiple emails to real accounts.
Why not just install in docket-compose file “maildev”:

And in Mailer config only “Host” and “Port”, this can be binding from ENV or whatever be your case.
If use ENV you can have maildev for development target and other for staging or production target.
After that you can open in browser:
