I built MailLinter because email testing in dev environments is still way more painful than it should be. MailLinter is a self-hosted MailHog-style SMTP trap, but with an opinionated twist: 📮 Local SMTP server to catch emails (no accidental sends) 🖥️ Clean inbox UI to inspect headers, HTML, and text 🤖 Optional AI-powered analysis (spam signals, accessibility, clarity) 🐳 Runs with a single Docker command 🔑 You bring your own OpenAI key — everything stays local It’s designed for developers who want confidence before production, not another SaaS inbox. I’d genuinely love feedback on: DX: setup, defaults, and local dev workflow Whether the AI feedback is actually useful vs. noisy Missing features that would make this a “must-have” in your stack Happy to answer any technical questions, and thanks for taking a look 🙏
