A dangerous and probably broken SMTP proxy that attempts to keep you sane
Project description
An SMTP proxy built around inbox.py which attempts to maintain some sanity as your servers begin to send thousands of emails just cause.
The basic premise is emails from a given server or process will happen, but all 1300 aren’t really necessary right this instant. god forbid if you pay by the smtp delivery.
