What is a temporary Hotmail address?
A temporary Hotmail is a shared @hotmail.com address you can use right away to receive emails for a short time, without creating a Microsoft account. Each user gets their own address thanks to the “plus addressing” feature of Hotmail and Outlook.
Why does an address with “+” still receive emails?
Hotmail treats everything after the “+” as a tag. An email sent to [email protected] is delivered to the [email protected] mailbox. T-Mail reads that mailbox, looks at the tag after the “+” to know who the email belongs to, and only shows it to the person holding that tag.
Temporary Hotmail vs. a personal Hotmail account
| Criteria | Temporary Hotmail | Personal Hotmail account |
|---|---|---|
| Sign-up required | No | Yes, usually with a phone number |
| Send emails | No | Yes |
| How long emails are kept | 24 hours | Long term |
| Outlook sign-in | No | Yes |
| Best for | One-time codes | Long-term use, important accounts |
Is a temporary Hotmail safe?
You only see the emails sent to your tag, emails are displayed in an isolated frame and unknown links show a warning before they open. However, the base mailbox is shared and emails are deleted after 24 hours, so use a temporary Hotmail for one-time codes only, never for important accounts.
FAQ
Temporary Hotmail: frequently asked questions
What is a temporary Hotmail address?
It’s an @hotmail.com address you can use instantly, without creating a Microsoft account, to receive verification codes on websites that block ordinary temporary email domains. Emails are deleted automatically after a while.
Why does an address with “+” still receive emails?
Hotmail treats everything after the “+” as a tag. Emails sent to [email protected] are delivered to [email protected]. We read that mailbox and only show you the emails sent to your own tag.
Is this my own Hotmail account?
No. The base mailbox is shared. You can’t sign in to Hotmail or send emails, and you only see emails sent to your exact address.
Why do Hotmail emails arrive more slowly?
We check the Hotmail mailbox about every 10 seconds, so emails usually arrive after 10–30 seconds, a little slower than our own domains.
What if a website rejects addresses containing “+”?
Some websites refuse addresses with a “+”. In that case, use Temp Mail with our own domains and try another domain if needed.
How long are temporary Hotmail emails kept?
Emails are kept for 24 hours, then deleted. They are also removed from the base Hotmail mailbox as soon as they are delivered to you.
Can I use a temporary Hotmail for important accounts?
It’s not recommended. The base mailbox is shared and emails are deleted after a while, so you might not be able to reset a password later. Use it for one-time codes only.
