MailCatcher
Email catcher that runs an SMTP server and shows the received messages in a web interface, written in Ruby.
MailCatcher is an email catcher written in Ruby. It runs an SMTP server that catches every message sent to it and shows the messages in a web interface, so an application can be pointed at it and the mail is displayed rather than delivered. A REST-style URL schema also serves the messages as JSON. It runs as a daemon in the background, and it is installed with gem install or started from its Docker image.
