Can someone please explain to me why they can't create the account even if it is used as disposable? Storing one text file with the login on their side does not cost much storage at all.
Because they want to sell it and spam it.
This happens to me occasionally already as a paid Fastmail user. I switched from Gmail about a year ago and I can’t change my existing Yahoo account to use Fastmail.
I get it, we deal with fraud and abuse from throwaway emails all day at work, but it is frustrating for sure.
