Our marketing dept wants to buy FitBit exercise devices for elementary kids.  Each device needs a unique email address for setup.  They're buying 325 devices, and I don't want to create those on our email server.

Do you know of a free email system which will allow for bulk email account creation?

Do the kids need access to the email accounts? If not, just set up 1 gmail account and for each device add +somethingto the address.  They'll all go to the same gmail account

I guess I don't get what you're suggesting.

If my gmail account's address is [email protected], how do I add 324 additional accounts to that with each having a unique address?

It works.  But some websites will see the + character as invalid and won't let you put it in.  Most do though.  

Cool thing is with GMAIL you can then filter on the new email alias and move to trash automatically or whatever
