Use Telegram Bot to get your temporary email..
This is a Telegram Bot based on Cloudflare Email Routing Worker, which can convert emails into Telegram messages. You can forward emails from recipients with any prefix to the Bot, and then a temporary mailbox Bot with an infinite address will be created.

- Create a bot to obtain a token, use
@BotFather > /newbot, create a bot and then copy the token. - Call
https://project_name.user_name.workers.dev/initto bind the Webhook, and check the returned result to confirm the binding status. - To use Telegram mini programs, you must set a privacy policy. Please visit
@BotFather > /mybots > (select one) > Edit Bot > Edit Privacy Policy, and then set it to the default privacy policy for Telegram mini programs:https://telegram.org/privacy-tpa

Copy the configuration template and modify it with your own Telegram configuration:
cp wrangler.example.toml wrangler.toml -
Deploy
yarn & yarn pub
- If you don't want to deploy using the command line and prefer to copy and paste, you can use the precompiled version >
index.js - When deploying via copy and paste, you need to manually set environment variables in the project's configuration page.
- Bind
KV Namespace Bindingsdatabase to worker with the nameDB - To generate a whitelist/blacklist of regular expressions as a JSON array string, you can use this small tool which also includes some demos: regexs2jsArray
- Follow the official tutorial to configure Cloudflare Email Routing.

| To be deprecated soon, switch to using built-in mini programs for editing.，Sender blacklist, an array of regular expressions or email address converted to a string | |
| MAIL_TTL | Email cache retention time in seconds, default is one day. After expiration, emails will no longer be previewable, please back up. |
| OPENAI_API_KEY | OpenAI API Key, Used for summarizing email content. If not filled out, the "Summary" button will not appear. |
| OPENAI_COMPLETIONS_API | Customizable API, default value is https://api.openai.com/v1/chat/completions |
| OPENAI_CHAT_MODEL | Customizable model, default value is gpt-4o-mini |
| SUMMARY_TARGET_LANG | The language for customizing the summary, with a default value of english |
| GUARDIAN_MODE | Guard mode, default off, if you want to enable it, fill in true. |
| MAX_EMAIL_SIZE | Maximum email size in bytes, emails exceeding this size will be processed according to MAX_EMAIL_SIZE_POLICY. The main purpose is to prevent the worker function from timing out due to too large attachments. Default is 512*1024. |
| MAX_EMAIL_SIZE_POLICY | The available values are unhandled, truncate and continute. unhandled means return the headers without parsing the message body, truncate means truncate the message body and only parse the allowed size, continute means continue to process the message regardless of the size limit. The default is truncate. This policy only affects Telegram push messages, not email forwarding. |
| DB | Bind the database to the worker at the KV Namespace Bindings section. The Variable Name must be DB, and KV Namespace select any newly created KV. |
The command-based management of black and white lists in the old version has been deprecated. Now, the management of black and white lists is done through a mini-program. The black and white lists in the environment variables cannot be displayed or modified in the mini program.
To use the telegram-mini-program, you need to re-call the
/initapi to bind the commands.

The default message structure is as follows.
[Subject]
-----------
From : [sender]
To: [recipient]
(Preview)(Summary)(Text)(HTML)
When the email forwarding notification is sent to Telegram, only the title, sender, recipient, and four buttons are displayed.
Previewmode: You can preview the plain text mode of the email directly in the bot, but there is a limit of 4096 characters.Summarymode: When you have configuredOPENAI_API_KEY, theSummarybutton will appear, allowing you to summarize the content of the email.TEXTmode: Use the web page to view plain text emails, and read emails longer than 4096 characters.HTMLmode: You can view rich text emails, but they may contain certain scripts or other tracking links. It is recommended to use rich text mode only when necessary or when the source is confirmed to be safe.
MAIL_TTL: For security reasons, when the email cache retention time exceedsMAIL_TTL, the link that the button jumps to cannot be opened. You can modify the environment variables to adjust the expiration time.- Due to Workers restrictions, emails (especially with large attachments) may cause function timeouts and multiple retries, which may result in receiving duplicate notifications. It is recommended to add a backup email to the FORWARD_LIST to prevent email loss.
- Enabling
GUARDIAN_MODEcan reduce duplicate message interference, improve worker success rate, but will consume more KV write times. It is recommended to enable it when necessary.
Regarding the matching rules for blacklists and whitelists, taking the whitelist as an example, first, the WHITE_LIST will be read from the environment variable and converted into an array. Then, the WHITE_LIST will be read from KV and converted into an array. Finally, the two arrays will be merged to obtain the complete whitelist rules. When matching, it will first determine whether the elements in the array are equal to the string to be matched. If they are equal, the match is successful. If they are not equal, the elements in the array will be converted into regular expressions and then matched. If the match is successful, it will return success. If all elements fail to match, it will return failure.
To generate a regular JSON array string for the whitelist/blacklist, you can use this small tool, which also includes several demos. regexs2jsArray
It is recommended to use a small program to manage the blacklist and whitelist, which can be more convenient to add and delete. The existing blacklist and whitelist in the environment variables will soon be deprecated.
This bot does not support attachments. If you need attachment support, you can use my other project testmail-viewer to forward the email to your testmail using FORWARD_LIST, so that you can download your attachments using testmail-viewer.
