Thanks for your reply & recommendation. Currently I develop user registration module for my application. I want to have pop3 + smtp together to send a mail to the smtp server (in linux), and receive them in my email client application from the pop3 server. jmailsrv is excellent open source application but it is not same as windows version. Since I am newbie to linux, I face issues in setup jmailsrv. My requirement is, small, light weight smtp & pop3 server for email testing (sending & receiving) for development purpose. I don't connect to internet all the time when I am working.
I just wondered what other pylon developers doing for email testing. That was the reason I posted here. It is good to know about exim, I will see whether it is easy to setup or not. How emails are handled in pylons? What is the recommended approach? Dalius Dobravolskas wrote: > [email protected] wrote: > > I use Pylons for past two months.
