How to Add Your Custom Domain to TempMail
Step-by-step guide to setting up your own domain for receiving temporary emails with TempMail.
Why Add Your Own Domain?
Using your own domain for temporary email gives you a professional appearance, brand consistency, and full control over your disposable email addresses.
Prerequisites
- A domain name you own (e.g.,
yourdomain.com) - Access to your domain's DNS settings (Cloudflare, Namecheap, GoDaddy, etc.)
Step-by-Step Setup
Step 1: Add MX Record
Log in to your DNS provider and add this record:
| Type | Host | Value | Priority | |---|---|---|---| | MX | @ | mail.mailmomy.com | 10 |
Step 2: Wait for DNS Propagation
DNS changes typically take 5-30 minutes to propagate worldwide. You can check progress using:
dig MX yourdomain.com
Step 3: Verify on TempMail
- Visit Add Domain
- Enter your domain name
- Click Check DNS to verify the MX record
- Once verified, click Add Domain
Step 4: Start Using
Go to Inbox, select your domain from the dropdown, and create any email address like hello@yourdomain.com.
Important Notes
- We check MX records daily. If you remove the MX record, your domain will be deactivated
- If you re-add the MX record, your domain will be automatically re-activated
- All emails are subject to the same auto-delete policy
- You can add unlimited domains
Troubleshooting
MX check fails?
- Wait 30 minutes for DNS propagation
- Ensure no conflicting MX records exist
- Check that the MX value is exactly
mail.mailmomy.com
Not receiving emails?
- Verify the MX record is active:
dig MX yourdomain.com - Ensure the domain is shown as "Active" on the Add Domain page
