I’ve been there. I was pretty uncomfortable using my personal E-mail ID on sites I am not sure of, so I used one of the free Disposable or Temporary e-mail addresses made available instantly by few of the services mentioned later in this article.

Whats a Disposable or a Temporary ID?
These e-mail addresses are created only for a limited period of time(optional), at the time of creation user can chose the validity period of the e-mail address which starts from 1 hours to virtually unlimited period of time. These e-mail addresses can be terminated at any time OR you can also chose to extend the validity period of the address. This services proves to be very helpful in keeping SPAM away from your personal ID.

Few of these services make it really easy for the users to get a temp ID by serving up a randomly available ID on the homepage for immediate registration.

Here is a list of services where you can signup for a Temporary e-mail ID:

Keep SPAM off your Inbox!
