Mailinator - https://www.mailinator.com/ is an online disposable email service.

There are two benefits of using Mailinator ie:

  • Changing the email of someone's account who is now deceased
  • Changing the email of an account where the email has been entered incorrectly and therefore they do not receive the confirmation email
