disposable mailbox
a self-hosted, simple and fast disposable mail service that works directly with your imap server. No database required.
This code is not maintained any more, this is a read-only archive.
Why? I found that https://forwardemail.net and Apple's What is Hide My Email? solve my use cases and are much more convenient.
You need a domain with catch-all-mailbox and an imap account.
Your run the void-mail nodejs application on your own server. It will automatically load all mails from the imap server.
When the user opens the void-mail web application, he/she can read the mails corresponding to a specific address.
See FAQ
- Push-Notification on new emails.
- Mail presentation are sanitized to avoid tracking.
- In-Memory cache for very fast mail access.
- No database required! You just need a catch-all-mailbox imap server.
- Deletes emails older than X days.

This mostly works, but some things need to be done:
Testing:
- create unit/integration tests
Maybe Later:
- support multiple domains
- support delete
docker deployment- reduce code base, if possible
