I mentioned disposable email a long time ago. I don’t use the service I wrote about then very often any more; it wasn’t working for a while, so I found a different one: SpamGourmet.

Sizlopedia‘s list of the Top 20 Temporary and Disposable Email Services doesn’t include SpamGourmet. Disposable addresses really are useful to keep the spam away, and you should have one for when you need to provide an email to sign up for something, but want to avoid another mailing list.
