1. developing software that sends e-mails, but not having to set up a test environment/pray you don't break production, and
2. testing out new software that insists on sending e-mail when you're just one person in a small/localhost-only environment.
I love it.
One thing I'm sad to see is that there seems to be no TLS/STARTTLS support on the side of develmail. Given that TLS can be a bit finicky to set up and that plaintext SMTP is ideally deprecated as fast as possible, it may be worth a thought to just Let's Encrypt it.
