It’s the OG. No fuss. No need to create the address beforehand. Just make one up and enter it where you need to. Sadly, the data kraken thugs of the world catch on, and even though there are many alternate domains, it starts to be blocked more and more. (There are way more alternate domains, but to avoid blocking, they are kept semi-secret.) So unless you know someone,…) Mailinator often doesn’t work anymore nowadays. (And neither do those that require you to sign up, btw) :/ But when it does, it’s the best.

They only have one domain recently, and that is mailinator.com.

Many sites have banned that domain, so it's pretty much useless now.

They have many domains. But they are kept somewhat secret, as they have become blocked quickly otherwise. So you have to know where to find them. (Anyone can create an alternate domain for it though. Just set it to Mailinator’s IP address. So if you sell domains or get them for cheap otherwise, the sky’s the limit!)

This is banned at a few sites at signup, may be worth it to get a less popular alternative.

Sadly, the others are just as banned. And they don’t even have alternate domains, so there’s so way out. At least Mailinator allows anyone to create an alternate domain for it. Although that’s not free. Nor anonymous if you don’t have a special service for that. :/)
