**09.02.2020: mailug has moved to the attic!**
Mailhug is an SMTP sink for testing e-mail services. It is similar to
[mailhog](https://github.com/mailhog/MailHog),
[maildev](https://github.com/maildev/maildev), and a bunch of others. The key
differentiator to these services is that it is written in Rust, making it
extremely resource efficient. Mailhug is, in theory, able to handle giant loads
of e-mail on resource constraint hardware without even blinking. In addition,
mailhug features a REST API with a React interface - all in a single binary and
therefore simple to deploy.
Some first tests were promising. However, mailhug never really got anywhere and
I lost interest. There are many alternatives to choose from, which are more
mature and fine for any realistic workload.
For all these reasons mailhug had to move to the attic. :broken_heart:
