We do not issue Harvard, university, or government mail. Live receive only on owned domains, for 20 minutes.
The tech behind temporary .edu-style tests
Format for forms, receive on owned MX. That split is the whole product rule.
What is a temporary .edu-style email?
A testing address with an education-looking suffix on a host you own. Not affiliated with any school registrar.
Why testers ask for it
To exercise a UI branch in lab. Not to obtain a student discount.
How to choose
If you do not own the host, do not mint it. DummyEmails only receives on Chirag's domains.
How to use this page
Use an owned domain chip that matches what your form expects. Copy, submit, read mail before TTL ends.
Conclusion
These are testing addresses. They are not affiliated with any school, .edu registrar, or government agency.
