...so that email-based passwordless login works "out of the box" for dev.

Probably the hard part is not installing the server but configuring it such that it can actually deliver mail. These days that usually means setting up an account with Sendgrid, Mailgun, Mandrill, or the like, since SMTP from random unknown servers is blocked or blackholed. We have talked about (but not yet done any work on) trying to integrate with one of these services for easy setup.

What about mailtrap.io? That seems enough for testing.

We could also use mailinator.com​ for this, if we're crafty.

Warning: Bizdev. Hackers, avert your eyes.

Honestly I think we should get a sponsorship deal with Sendgrid, Mailgun, or Mandrill where we add an easy setup option that walks you through setting up a free-tier account with them. Funding for Sandstorm, and makes life easier for users. Win-win.
