Welcome

This is a simple repository to implement SMTP server with NodeJS.

This project is fun project built from testing and learning perspective. For starting this project I have been interested in using some of the resources avilable in the internet.

Some of them are documentations and some of them are tutorial videos from youtube. I have included those resources here if you may be interested in them.

Getting Started

In order to get started with this repository, you need to do the following.

• Get a clone of the project Git Clone

Repository

• Frontend - Contains a react application that will be used as a method of interacting with the email received as well as to send new emails.

The HTTP server is responsible for communication with the frontend including web and mobile application to display incoming email and also to send a new email from user. The STMP server is responsible for actually receiving emails for the client, and to deliver the emails of client to other SMTP server.
• Mobile - Contains a Flutter based mobile application that replicates the functionality of web app in mobile platforms like android and iOS
