F.A.Q.
What
is anonymous email?
It's an email without revealing your identity to the recipient.
This is ideal for professionals on the move who want to send
an email but are not able to or want to log into their account
at work to accomplish the task for security reasons. Alongside
the provision to send emails from any email id, fakemail also
hides the IP address of the sender.
You can change your name in an email so that it looks like
the email came from somewhere or someone else. You can spoof
any email address and send it to anyone you like.
Does
the email really look anonymous?
Absolutely! The easiest way to check of course is to send
a fake mail to yourself! Send one right now and see how real
it looks! Download DEMO
Is
this traceable?
Sort of. Nothing on the internet is really anonymous. If you
do something that you really shouldn't, there are probably
going to be ways and means of finding you. So be good, and
use it for mischief, not malice.
Will
it always work?
Almost always. But some mail servers are more strict than
others, and do checks to get around this sort of thing. In
this case, you'll need to find a more sophisticated way to
play your prank!
Is
my cell phone compatible with Fakemail MIDlet?
Just try to download and start. You will see an error message
if something is wrong. Otherwise, you should be OK.
Your mobile phone must be:
* Java enabled: J2ME MIDP
* configured for WAP
* configured also for Internet access. If you are using GPRS,
some carriers require a GPRS access point (APN) different
from the WAP access point . For instructions, visit your operator's
web site or refer to the following list of Internet
APNs.
What
does it cost?
Your mobile carrier will charge you for the GRPS/UMTS traffic
for downloading the Fakemail application . Additionally also
for transmitting messages over GPRS/UMTS.
Typically, messaging is very low-cost compared to SMS, MMS,
but please check the mobile data fees which apply to your
carrier subscription plan. A certain amount of montly traffic
might be included in your subscription fee.
How
long does it take for a email to be delivered?
There is no way I can give an accurate answer to this as so
many other parties involved such as the recipients email provider.
This means that if an email is not received it is not necessarily
a problem with Fakemail. The average time taken for a email
to be delivered is usually no more than 20 seconds depending
on server loads. If an email is not delivered after several
hours then check that it has not been filtered into a junk
mail folder and that the recipients email address was correct
.
What
other things do I have to consider when sending anonymous
emails?
Few things that SendFakeMail suggest you as precautionary
measure are:
* Do not put your personal details on the
email.
* Do not put information in the email that may narrow down
the possible senders
* Use different writing techniques than your own when sending
emails.
