      All,

      Do you ever get tired of having to give up your email to so many places?  You go to a website and you want to read something, all you have to do is give up your email address?  I feel like I am being robbed every time I have to do that.  Worse yet?  The ones that make you go and validate the email they send you.  How to beat them at their game…disposable email addresses.

      Here are links to two websites that some creative types have setup just to help us with this predicament.  One gives you an email address that when written to it is simply a black hole into which nothing ever returns.  The other is one that gives you ten minutes to get a verification link and acknowledge it, then that one too turns into a black hole.  Please try them out and let me know what you think.  LOL  I love outsmarting the borderline crooks out there.

      Black Hole – https://temp-mail.org/en/ – If you are fast burning, giving disposable emails to several places that do not require validation, just use this one.

      Ten Minute Mail – https://10minutemail.com/ – If you need an “in box” to receive and validate a disposable email, use this one.  You can only do one of them every ten minutes without some hijinks.

      We have several family members in the Club.  In at least two cases the spouse doesn’t care to get a separate email.  The website requires a unique email for each family member.  I simply used two emails generated by the Black Hole site above and fixed the problem instantly.  One spouse gets the Club emails, the other gets them sent into a black hole.  Two problems solved: 1) They don’t get emails they don’t want, and; 2) We don’t get bounced emails either.

      Enjoy,

      Phillip
