Nuggets of Information
From the Quagmire of My Mind...

Just somewhere to dump pearls of wisdom (and sometimes other stuff) from a old, tired nerd that's been doing DevOps and related things for FAR to long :)

DevTools - Mailhog

Yes we still use and need email (testing)

 

MailHog

[https://github.com/mailhog/MailHog]

Inspired by MailCatcher, easier to install.

  • Download and run MailHog
  • Configure your outgoing SMTP server
  • View your outgoing email in a web UI
  • Release it to a real mail server

Built with Go - MailHog runs without installation on multiple platforms.

Overview MailHog is an email testing tool for developers:

  • Configure your application to use MailHog for SMTP delivery
  • View messages in the web UI, or retrieve them with the JSON API
  • Optionally release messages to real SMTP servers for delivery
