My Experience with Fake Email:

It can be used for sending quick mails, esp. in a case when due to some reasons you are not able to log-in into your mail account. It can be used for sending inappropriate mails, as sender’s email address is mandatory, but there is no check on authenticity of the email address. But be careful, your ip and location can be traced, so, don’t misuse the service. You can play a prank on your friends.

However, using this service for some pranks to your known friends or using it as quick replacement of your mail account is not at all a bad idea, but I don’t find it useful for any other purpose. What do you think about it?

Have Fun!!
