What to Do When a Website Rejects Your Temporary Email

If a site says your email is invalid or not allowed, it probably blocks the domain. Try a new address, check for typos, or choose another option.

1 min read

You pasted your address and the site says it is invalid or not allowed. Usually the site blocks known temporary email domains, but check the simple causes first.

Steps

  1. Check for typos or spaces. Paste the address again from FreeTemp. See how to copy it correctly.
  2. Generate a new address. A new address may use a different domain. Create a temporary email address and try again.
  3. Try the sign-up once more. Follow how to sign up for a website with a temporary email from the start with the new address.
  4. Consider the site. If it refuses every temporary address, it does not want one. Decide whether you want to give it your real email.

Common problems

  • The site accepted the address but sent nothing. Use the missing-email checklist.
  • You cannot create a new address. There is a limit per connection within a short period. Wait a few minutes.

To see which sites suit this tool, read how to use a temporary email for one-time sign-ups.
