Hello,

Today was rainy so I forked Guerrilla-SMTPd server to create a fake SMTP server with a minimalist webmail client. Mails are neither relayed nor stored into a MySQL db (but temporarily in tiedot). I changed the command line interface to make it run either as a service or as a command. And I changed the interface to nginx. Now it can run through FastCGI or as a standalone web server.

The interrested of the thing is to get a SMTP optimized for load testing or for a demo of an application that send e-mails (they disappear after a while). It was inspired by smtp4dev but with web and performance in mind.

I haven't checked out Theary yet, but wanted to plug my project that is similar: Inbucket.   It also has POP3 and REST interfaces for testing in other email clients or integration test suites.  Mail is stored on disk (no DB dependency), but can be purged after a configurable period.  I have an instance that has been up for over 40 days and has received nearly 800k messages - so it's reasonably stable.

I wanted to thank you for that, James.  It's been helpful for my QA group.
