clinbox

Open source ommand line application to generate and access disposable email addresses, written in Rust.

Usage

To use clinbox, download the release binary or compile it yourself. If you'd like to be able to use it from your command line regardless of the directory you're in, ensure the executable is stored in a directory in your system's PATH.

You can get started by using the clinbox show comand to see your random email address, and list the emails in your inbox.

By default you'll see your 5 most recent emails, but you can specify a count (ex: clinbox show -c 10) to change the count.
