Getting Started

1. Install smtp4dev by following the instruction here

2. Run Rnwood.Smtp4dev(.exe) (or if using the .NET tool or docker, it's different - see the link above)

3. Open the web interface in your browser.

   Smtp4dev prints out the address of the web interface to the console as it starts up. It's http://localhost:5000 by default.

   Now listening on: http://localhost:5000

4. Check that the SMTP server has started successfully.

   This is shown at the top right of the screen and should say SMTP server is listning on port X.

   If it instead says something else, this usually indicates that another program is using this port, or you do not have permission to use this port. You can pick a different port in the settings dialog; click the settings button at top right of screen.

5. Configure your mail sending apps.

   Any programs that you want to send mail to smtp4dev need to be configured so that they send mail via SMTP to the host/address and port number where smtp4dev is running. Use the port number you saw/chose above.

6. Any messages received by smtp4dev will be displayed in the list.
