PHPMailer
The classic email sending library for PHP
PHPMailer – A full-featured email creation and transfer class for PHP. Support for UTF-8 content and 8bit, base64, binary, and quoted-printable encodings. SMTP authentication with LOGIN, PLAIN, CRAM-MD5, and XOAUTH2 mechanisms over SMTPS and SMTP+STARTTLS transports. Validates email addresses automatically. Many PHP developers need to send email from their code. The only PHP function that supports this directly is mail(). However, it does not provide any assistance for making use of popular features such as encryption, authentication, HTML messages, and attachments. Formatting email correctly is surprisingly difficult. There are myriad overlapping (and conflicting) standards, requiring tight adherence to horribly complicated formatting and encoding rules – the vast majority of code that you'll find online that uses the mail() function directly is just plain wrong, if not unsafe! -

Inbucket
Disposable webmail server (similar to Mailinator) with built in SMTP
Inbucket is an email testing application; it will accept messages from any email address and make them available to view via a web interface.

It allows you to keep your new application development secret until it's time to release it. Inbucket is ideal for validating that emails go out as part of your integration test suite, sending links to coworkers to demonstrate an email without sharing your Gmail password, and load testing your application without overwhelming your corporate Exchange server. You can use production data in your test environment without the risk of test messages leaking to an end user, and preview emails in multiple desktop email clients. Use Inbucket for all these needs and more. -

Production-ready fullstack but simple mail server
docker-mailserver provides a production-ready, all-in-one email server in a single container, focused on simplicity and maintainability. It bundles the core mail stack—Postfix for SMTP and Dovecot for IMAP/POP3—then layers in optional anti-spam and anti-virus services, DKIM/DMARC signing and verification, and rate-/abuse-protection tooling. The project emphasizes secure defaults while exposing configuration via environment variables and mounted files, allowing you to define users, aliases, domains, and sieve filters without rebuilding images. It integrates smoothly with Let’s Encrypt for TLS, supports LDAP and other auth backends, and ships with scripts to validate DNS records and common misconfigurations. Persistent volumes keep mailboxes and state, making upgrades straightforward and rollbacks less risky. Administrators appreciate the clear docs, test suite, and opinionated conventions that help avoid fragile bespoke setups. -

Haraka
A fast, highly extensible, and event driven SMTP server
Haraka is a highly scalable node.js email server with a modular plugin architecture. Haraka can serve thousands of concurrent connections and deliver thousands of messages per second. Haraka and plugins are written in asynchronous JS and are very fast. Haraka has very good spam protection (see plugins) and works well as a filtering MTA. It also works well as a MSA running on port 587 with auth and dkim_sign plugins enabled. Haraka makes no attempt to be a mail store (like Exchange or Postfix/Exim/Qmail), a LDA, nor an IMAP server (like Dovecot or Courier). Haraka is typically used with such systems. Haraka has a scalable outbound mail delivery engine built in. Mail marked as relaying (such as via an auth plugin) is automatically queued for outbound delivery. Haraka's plugin architecture provides an easily extensible MTA that complements traditional MTAs that excel at managing mail stores but do not have sufficient filtering. -
