How Mailinator compresses its email stream by 90%

Can you tell us what the site is? I've once or twice found sites that blocked even mailinator's alternate domains. Having a less well known alternative to mailinator would be nice.

http://dudmail.com is my site. (@scatmail.com and @trayna.com addresses will also end up there)

I made a submission here about it a few months back: http://news.ycombinator.org/item?id=3026892

In terms of mailinator being blocked . . . if that's the case, he's probably in the database http://www.block-disposable-email.com (as are my domains). The guy is pretty quick at finding at adding new disposable email domains.

I plan to add a few new domains on every now and then to see if I can at least keep some getting past his filter...

10MinuteMail.com is another option.

There's also 20minutemail.com - random address, allows reply, forward and download of message

yopmail.com - any address (like Mailanator) and allows download of attachments directly

There are a ton of these available, just depends on your specific needs. I regularly use them for signing up to those sites that need sign-up before access to a file/article/image (e.g. forums).

I've also used them in testing web apps, using Selenium to grab the email address and registering a user and then going back to check the welcome email had arrived.
