Guide Review - SpamMotel - Disposable Email Address Service
SpamMotel lacks the advanced features of similar services, but SpamMotel is easy to use, and all the essential functionality is there: random disposable email addresses can be created via a small Windows app or a Web interface, and they can be disabled easily as soon as spam arrives.
Alternatively, black and white lists can be set up per address. Replies to forwarded messages are protected by SpamMotel through reply address masking.
Unfortunately, SpamMotel disposable email addresses cannot expire automatically, address can't be chosen freely, and SpamMotel inserts long headers and footers in forwarded emails.
