Disposable email database
Is burnermail.io a disposable email?
Quick answer
burnermail.io is operated by Burner Mail, a disposable / temporary email service. Signups using this domain are almost always throwaway. Block at signup if your product depends on long-term email reachability.
About Burner Mail
Burner Mail is a browser-extension-first email aliasing service: it generates a unique 'burner' address per website at the moment of signup and forwards mail to the user's real inbox, with one-click disabling of any burner that misbehaves.
What it’s typically used for
Privacy-focused signups where the user wants real, ongoing email delivery but refuses to expose their actual address to your database.
Should you block burnermail.io in your signup form?
Like other forwarding services, these are usually real users who do want your email. Risk-tier instead of hard-blocking unless your product has strict identity requirements — a burner address plus clean IP and normal behavior is generally a legitimate signup.
How to detect burnermail.io in code
You don’t need to maintain a hand-rolled list. Vouchley returns a disposable flag (and the rest of the signup score) on every check:
curl -X POST https://api.vouchley.getrevlio.com/v1/verify \
-H "Authorization: Bearer vch_live_..." \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"email": "anyone@burnermail.io",
"ip_address": "203.0.113.10"
}'
# Response:

# "recommendation": "block",
# "email": { "disposable": true, "valid": true },

Vouchley keeps the disposable list current — including alias domains and new providers — so you never have to maintain it yourself.
