MailCatcher Docker Image

MailCatcher runs a super simple SMTP server which catches any message sent to it to display in a web interface.

Installation

Pull the image from the GitHub Package Registry. This is the recommended method of installation as it is easier to update image.

docker pull docker.pkg.github.com/rebilly/docker-mailcatcher/mailcatcher:latest

Build the image locally

git clone git@github.com:Rebilly/docker-mailcatcher.git 
cd docker-mailcatcher
docker build -t docker.pkg.github.com/rebilly/docker-mailcatcher/mailcatcher:latest .

Quick start

Using docker-compose.yml

services:
  mailcatcher:
    restart: on-failure:10
    image: docker.pkg.github.com/rebilly/docker-mailcatcher/mailcatcher:latest
    ports:
    - "1080:1080"
    - "1025:1025"

Alternately, you can manually launch the mailcatcher container.

docker run --name='mailcatcher' -d --publish=1080:1080 --publish=1025:1025 \
    docker.pkg.github.com/rebilly/docker-mailcatcher/mailcatcher:latest
