2minutes mail
A blast from the past!
A "2-minute mail" is a type of temporary email address that was popular in the early days of the internet. It was a service that allowed users to create a temporary email address that would be valid for a short period of time, usually 2 minutes.
The idea behind 2-minute mail was to provide a way for people to send an email to someone without having to worry about creating a permanent email address or dealing with spam. You could create a temporary email address, send the email, and then forget about it. The email would be deleted after the 2-minute period was up, so you wouldn't have to worry about receiving unwanted responses or spam.
2-minute mail services were often used for simple tasks like:
- Sending a one-time password to someone
- Allowing someone to contact you without having to give out your permanent email address
- Creating a temporary email address for a specific purpose, like signing up for a newsletter or trial offer
Some popular 2-minute mail services in the past included:
- 2minutemail.net
- Mailinator.com
- 10minutemail.com
- Temp-mail.org
While 2-minute mail services are still available today, they are not as widely used as they were in the past. With the rise of disposable email addresses and other temporary email solutions, the need for 2-minute mail has decreased. However, they can still be useful for specific situations where you need a temporary email address for a short period of time.
