I hope you might appreciate a curated catalogue of similar, free, open-source, web-based, self-hosted mail catching software that is currently maintained so we might learn from each other. Perhaps such a list could also make it into the readme at some point.

Thanks for the list, I would suggest 3 extra columns:

number of stars on github
has api support (for testing)
has official and maintained docker image

@Bilge That's useful, thanks. You may want to add MailPit by @axllent to your list.

@dregad Thanks, I added it, although it seems a bit too new and doesn't include any screenshots as yet.

FYI: Found 2 MailHog alternatives written in Rust.

mailcrab
- actively maintained
mailtutan
- no more new features / commits / releases since about half a year (as of 2023-11)
- no linux/arm64 binary releases

@nifr Thanks, I added MailCrab. The other one looks like it may be DOA.

Excellent list, thanks!

I tried a number of them and mailpit is the closest possible to mailhog. For me it was a drop-in replacement.
