Show HN : Airmail, instant disposable email made with node.js
- oron 15y agoI made this while learning nodejs, It's very handy when registering for new services and waiting for that confirmation / authenticate your email request. uses node.js redis and haraka for the backend and socket.io for real time browser notifications
- chrisacky 15y agoI will definitely use this for throw away services that ask for email and you know you are never going to touch it again. Pretty impressive implementation also. I'm sure you have spotted, but there is a spelling mistake "recived" => "received". What are you running in the backend for mail pickup? SendGrid, MailGun?
- oron 15y agoThanks, changed the welcome text to be shorter and dropped the spelling mistake :-) Uses Haraka for the backend (based on node.js)
- tux1968 15y agoLove the idea, but didn't work for me... nothing sent to blue.mouth@7tags.com arrived.
- oron 15y agowhich browser are you using ? maybe a problem with socket.io ?
- l4u 15y agoThe interface looks cool, but could the welcome screen be skippable?
- oron 15y agoYes I think that's a good idea, was annoyed by it myself.
- cleverjake 15y agoEasily my favorite interface for throw away emails. Ironically, it allows a lot of tracking through (https://grepular.com/email_privacy_tester https://grepular.com/email_privacy_tester)
- oron 15y agoThat's a good point ... I will see what I can do about that. maybe the best approach would be to proxy everything through my server, so the sender can only see airmail's ip in his logs ?
