Temporary email services aren't as anonymous as they seem.
10minutemail, Guerrilla Mail, and similar services let you create throwaway addresses, but the services themselves log IP addresses and usage. Anyone with access to the service's logs can correlate your temporary address with your real identity through connection data.
For truly anonymous email, temporary services require additional layers of protection like Tor.
