I want a mail server to use during development that doesn't actually send emails but just saves them somewhere and lets me view them.
Any ideas?

I was thinking more of a bash script or sommat. But having thought about it, it wouldn't really work would it as I doubt emails are sent to sendmail as plaintext.

I'd prefer a Windows solution, so I can develop when I've just got my notebook on me.
Something that just lets me put localhost:25 into the mail config area of Railo, then does the magic for me.

Well you could set up sendmail and force it to send all emails to you rather than to whoever.
I doubt you're going to find a mail server that's been made to just store stuff locally rather than send. Especially for windows. Though again, sendmail may have that option, I dunno.

I'm halfway there...

A Java SMTP server that redirects everything to /dev/null
That'll do for now, but would be nice to get something that lets me verify my HTML is coming out as intended.

Oooh, and that does have an option to save the messages as .eml files.
Perfect.

You needed to be two minutes sooner.
:)
Thanks though, that looks like it would do what I want too.
