Important restrictions
Local single-developer tool, not Mailtrap's hosted Email API or cloud Sandbox. No team accounts, authentication, multi-tenancy or high availability; macOS/Linux builds, Windows not yet supported. Default localhost-only SMTP/HTTP ports 3.535/3550; releasing messages to a real SMTP provider can incur separate charges.
Independent community listing, not affiliated with the provider. Always check the latest billing policy and quotas before enabling paid usage.
