Inbucket
========
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.

Development Status
------------------
Inbucket is currently alpha quality: it works but is not well tested.
It can:
* Receive SMTP and ESMTP messages and store them to disk
* List subject, sender and date of messages for a particular mailbox
* Parse MIME multipart emails
* Display the content of a particular message
* Display the source of a message (headers + body text)
* Display the HTML version of a message (in a new window)
* Delete a message
It does not yet:
* Display or download attachments
Installation
------------
You will need a functioning [Go installation][1] for this to work.
# From the base of your GOPATH...
go get github.com/jhillyerd/inbucket
go build github.com/jhillyerd/inbucket
bin/inbucketd src/github.com/jhillyerd/inbucket/conf/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/).
