How to use a fake SMTP server to test applications that need to send emails.
Sending emails is a critical part of many applications, whether you’re developing a website, a mobile app, or any software that requires email functionality. But how do you test this functionality without bombarding real inboxes with test emails? The answer lies in using a fake SMTP server.
This video demonstrates how to use a small utility that you can run on any operating system, such as MS Windows, Linux, Mac, BSD or Unix to test your applications to send emails to a fake SMTP server. These emails can be optionally saved to the disk for further analysis.
This fake server supports SMTP authentication as well as SSL encryption.
