Anonymous Email Providers Key Terms

Keep your email private with anonymous email providers

Anonymous email providers go by many terms but the result is the same, you never reveal your true IP address when you use this type of service. Some of the companies forward your emails using their server; some give you an email address to use on their server.

Pick the kind of service that works best for your company. If you want to use your real email but not your real IP address, anonymous email providers can do this for you. Learn the terms of the different types of services that provide anonymous email service.

Hide the IP address providers

Hide the IP address providers cloak your IP address by providing the IP address of proxy servers for your use. This type of anonymous email provider never reveals your true IP address to the receiver of your email.

Disposable email providers

Disposable email providers offer an email address located on their server for one to use instead of providing one's real email address. Using this form of anonymous email providers works well when filling out web forms. If the company sends too much spam to the disposable email address, close the account.

Email forwarding providers

Email forwarding providers accept your email then resend your email using their credentials. The end receiver does not know your true location with this type of anonymous email provider service.

Temporary email providers, throw away email providers

Temporary email providers, also known as throw away email providers, let you open an account to use for filling out registration forms. When you finish with the account, close it and open another. This type of anonymous email provider does not care how many accounts you open with them.

Email encryption providers

Email encryption providers transform an ordinary text email to a computer language. In order to read the email, one must have the private key. If the email falls into the wrong hands, they only see what appears to be meaningless symbols. Although technically this is not an anonymous email provider, it does render your email anonymous to all but those who have your key.

Remailer email provider

Remailer email providers offer a service that strips away the headers in your private email and replaces it with their headers. This will effectively render your email anonymous.
