|
|
========
|
|
|
|
Inbucket is an email testing service; it will accept messages for any email
|
|
address and make them available to view via a web interface.
|
|
|
|
It allows web developers, software engineers and system administrators to
|
|
quickly see the emailed output of ther applications. No per-account setup is
|
|
required! Mailboxes are created on the fly as mail is received for them, and
|
|
no password is required to browse the content of the mailboxes.
|
|
|
|
Inbucket has a built-in SMTP server and stores incoming mail as flat files on
|
|
disk - no external SMTP or database daemons required.
|
|
|
|
There is also an embedded POP3 server, which allows message rendering to be
|
|
checked in multiple email programs or to verify message delivery as part of
|
|
an integration test suite.

Installation from Source
|
|
------------------------
|
|
|
|
You will need a functioning [Go installation][1] for this to work.
|
|
|
|
Grab the Inbucket source code and compile the daemon:
|
|
|
|
go get -v github.com/jhillyerd/inbucket
|
|
|
|
Edit etc/inbucket.conf and tailor to your environment. It should work on most
|
|
Unix and OS X machines as is. Launch the daemon:
|
|
|
|
$GOPATH/bin/inbucket $GOPATH/src/github.com/jhillyerd/inbucket/etc/inbucket.conf
|
|
|
|
By default the SMTP server will be listening on localhost port 2500 and
|
|
the web interface will be available at [localhost:9000](http://localhost:9000/).
|
|
|
|
There are RedHat EL6 init, logrotate and httpd proxy configs provided.
