SMTP and IMAP roundtrip check
This packages sends a test email via SMTP, and checks that it was received via IMAP. Requires Python 3.x, since the stdlib in 2.x is missing too many features in this area.
Usage
Create a configuration file:
[default] recipient = test@example.com smtp_host = smtp.example.com:25 imap_host = imap.example.com:143 imap_username = test@example.com imap_password = secret
Now run mail-check-roundtrip example.conf. It will send a message with a random string in the X-Mailcheck-Token header, and then poll until receive_timeout to see if a message with that string was rececived (this message is then deleted). The exit status is 0 if sucessful, 1 on errors (e.g. connection failed) and 2 if the message could not be found.
Options
The following configuration options are supported and these are their defaults:
[default]
recipient = # REQUIRED
from = # defaults to recipient
headers = # default empty
Subject: This is a test
X-Custom-Header: one
smtp_host = localhost:25
smtp_ssl = starttls # or `ssl` or `none` (not recommended)
smtp_username =
smtp_password =
imap_host = localhost:143
imap_ssl = starttls # or `ssl` or `none` (not recommended).
imap_username = # REQUIRED
imap_password = # REQUIRED
imap_folder = INBOX
poll_timeout = 60
poll_interval = 10
poll_delete = true # Delete the message after it was found
loglevel = WARNING # This means no output for a successful run.

1.0.4 (2021-08-15)
Reduce loglevel for smtp/imap errors to prevent stdout output.
1.0.3 (2019-02-26)
Catch smtp/imap errors and exit, so we don’t produce output on stdout (which is annoying in cronjobs).
1.0.2 (2018-04-08)
Fix typo in console script name.
1.0.1 (2018-04-07)
Fix typo because smtplib.starttls has context and imaplib.starttls has ssl_context as the kw name, sigh.
1.0.0 (2018-04-07)
First release.
