Most of us are very curious to know a method to
send anonymous emails to
our friends for fun. But the question is, is it possible to
send anonymous emails in spite of the advanced spam
filtering technology adopted by email service provides like Gmail,
Yahoo etc? The answer is
YES, it is still possible to
bypass their spam filters and send anonymous emails to your friends.
For example, you can send an email to your friend with the following
sender details.

The art of sending this kind emails is known as
Email Spoofing. In my previous post on
How to Send Fake Email I
insisted on using your own SMTP server to send anonymous emails. This
method used to work successfully in the past, but today it has a very
low success rate since Gmail and Yahoo(all major email service
providers) blocks the emails that are sent directly from a PC.
In this post I have come up with a new way to send anonymous emails (spoofed emails) that has 100% success rate. If you have to successfully send an
anonymous email or spoofed email, you should send it using a relay server.
What is a Relay Server?
In simple words, a relay server is an
SMTP Server that
is trusted by Google or Yahoo as an authorised sender of the email. So,
when you send an email using a relay server, the email service
providers like Yahoo and Gmail blindly accept the emails and deliver it
to the inbox of the recipient. If the SMTP server is not authorised,
Google and Yahoo will reject all the emails sent from this SMTP server.
This is the reason for which using our own SMTP server to send emails
fail.
So What’s Next?
Now all we have to do is, find a
trusted SMTP server to Send Spoofed Emails. Usually all the emails that are sent from
web hosting providers
are trusted and authorised. So, you have to find a free web hosting
provider that allows you to send emails. But, most of the free Web
Hosts disable the Mail feature and do not allow the users to send
emails. This is done just to avoid spamming. However all the paid
hosting plans allow you to send any number of emails. Once you find a
hosting service that allows to send emails from their servers, it’s
just a cakewalk to send anonymous emails. All we have to do is just
modify the
email headers to insert the
spoofed From address field into it.
I have created a PHP script that allows you
to send emails from any name and email address of your choice. The script can be found here.
Anonymous Email Sender Script

6. Now type the following URL
http://yoursite.x10hosting.com/sendmail.php
NOTE:

subdomain that you have chosen during the registration process.
7. Use the script to send Anonymous Emails. Enjoy!!!
