A cross-platform graphical SMTP diagnostic tool
Project description
I spent a long time searching for a tool that would help me troubleshoot SMTP problems quickly and easily without having to resort to telnet. Finally, I gave up and wrote my own.
Features
Tested on OSX, Linux, and Windows
Graphical (no more telnet)
Trace window showing live progress from DNS record look-ups through SMTP session
Ability to override all DNS and SMTP settings
Support for SASL and TLS
Screenshots
Installation
Install wxPython (preferably version 2.9, although success has been reported for 2.8 on some platforms)
# pip install smtptester
…or:
# easy_install smtptester
This should add an smtptester executable to your $PATH.
