### Introduction
**ote** is a command line utility that generates temporary email address and automatically extracts OTPs or confirmation links from the incoming mails. It uses [1secmail.com](https://www.1secmail.com/api/)'s API to generate temporary emails.

It can be install with pip as follows:

```
pip3 install ote
```

### Usage

Enter `ote` in your terminal, a random email address will be generated for you. Any OTP or confirmation link sent to this address will be printed on your terminal.

After that:
- If the link/OTP is not accurate, enter 'f' to print the link to the email to check it yourself.
- If you want to open the confirmation link in your browser right away, enter 'o'
- To quit, either enter 'q' or press Ctrl+C

#### Generate a custom email

`ote init myusername`

It will create an email of form `[email protected]`. After this point, **ote** will use this personalized email every time.

#### Generate a secure email

`ote init`

It will generate a random 20 character email and save it for subsquent usage like the previous option.
