About ShieldMail

A focused temporary inbox MVP

ShieldMail creates disposable inboxes for privacy protection, spam avoidance, QA flows, and software testing. It is designed as an educational MVP with a replaceable mail provider layer, provider health checks, and clear responsible-use boundaries.

What makes ShieldMail different

The app keeps provider credentials behind server-side routes, supports multiple provider adapters, shows mailbox expiration clearly, and avoids pretending temporary email is appropriate for sensitive accounts.

Intended use

Use temporary email when you need a short-lived address for testing, demos, form validation, or keeping non-essential signup mail away from a personal inbox.

Important limits

Do not use temporary emails for banking, government services, password recovery, personal records, paid accounts, or anything sensitive. Temporary inboxes may expire, be blocked, or become unavailable.

Operational transparency

Provider availability can change. ShieldMail displays provider health and can rotate away from unavailable providers or recently failed domains when generating new inboxes.
