Random Email Address Generator

Generate sample email-shaped strings

This page makes one or many strings in the form prefix@domain. It does not create an account or inbox, receive messages, forward mail, or check whether a mailbox exists. The default domain is example.com; you can also select example.net and example.org, or add a domain you control for an authorized test.

The three example domains are reserved for documentation and examples under RFC 2606, with special-use status described in RFC 6761. They are useful placeholders because they are not ordinary domains that a random person can register as a real mailbox.

Control the prefix and domain

Set a minimum and maximum prefix length from 1 to 30 characters. The defaults are 6–10. Choose lowercase letters, uppercase letters, digits, and the characters ., _, or -. The first character is generated as a letter; the remaining positions use the enabled character groups. If all groups are disabled, lowercase letters are used as a fallback.

Choose one or more reserved domains, or add a custom domain that passes the page’s simple format check. The generator chooses among the selected and custom domains. A custom domain is only a suffix for the generated text; adding it does not prove ownership or configure a mailbox.

Single results and batches

Single mode creates one address at a time and keeps a short local history in the browser. Batch mode creates a list that can be copied or exported as TXT or CSV. Batch items are generated independently, so duplicate strings are possible. The available batch quantity depends on the account tier shown in the page.

Generated strings are not guaranteed to satisfy every receiving system’s email rules. For example, enabling punctuation can produce a prefix with a trailing dot or repeated dots. If the test is for a particular form, check the generated sample against that form’s validator.

Set up data for a form or test fixture

1. Choose a safe domain

   Leave example.com selected for mockups, documentation, and tests that must not represent a real user inbox. Only add a custom domain when you administer it or have clear permission to use it in a test.

2. Match the prefix rules

   Adjust the length range and enable the character types your target field is supposed to accept. Remember that the first character remains a letter.

3. Generate the needed quantity

   Use single mode for a quick visual check or batch mode for fixture rows. Review the actual output for punctuation and duplicate values before importing.

4. Copy or export

   Copy a single result or the batch, or export the list as TXT or CSV for a test environment you control.

Choose the right kind of email test

Placeholder addresses can test layout, field length, and parts of input validation. They cannot test email delivery, verification links, or one-time codes. For those workflows, use a receiving inbox and sending environment that your team controls, with safeguards against contacting real users.

What generated addresses can and cannot do

Use generated data with care

These results are sample strings, not verified contacts or accounts.

• Do not send messages to a custom domain unless you own it or are authorized to test it. A generated local part could match a real mailbox.
• Reserved example domains are intended for examples, but an application may still attempt delivery. Avoid sending sensitive content to placeholder addresses.
• Random output is not a security credential. Do not use it to create passwords, recovery tokens, or identity proof.
• Single-mode history is a convenience for the current browser and may disappear when site data is cleared or the browser changes.
