Throwaway email for newsletters, coupons & PDF gates
Genmail provides throwaway email inboxes for newsletter signups and gated downloads so users can receive confirmation and content links without committing their primary mailbox to long-term marketing mail.
You want the 10% code or the whitepaper—not a daily sales cadence for the next decade. Route those signups through an address built to expire.
One job per inbox
Spin up a fresh Genmail address per brand so you can tell exactly who overshares or sells addresses.
Still receive the double opt-in
Confirmation links land in your temporary inbox like any other mailbox until the timer ends.
Escape the promo treadmill
When you are done, let the inbox vanish—or upgrade to Pro if you need a longer window to click through.
Lead magnets are engineered to keep mailing you
Marketers are not evil—they are measured on list growth. Your job is to decide how much inbox access they have earned. Throwaway mail gives you the asset without granting permanent attention rights.
When you actually want the newsletter
Subscribe with an address you check long term, or use an alias that forwards to your main inbox. Genmail is for cases where you only needed the first email.
Unsubscribe vs disappear
Legitimate senders include unsubscribe links, but some lists ignore preferences. An expiring inbox is a hard stop when soft options fail.
