Free SMTP utility

Test an SMTP server and see the entire conversation.

Connect to SendGrid, Mailgun, Amazon SES, GMass, or any SMTP server and watch the exact client/server exchange. It’s a fast way to diagnose authentication, TLS, connection, and sending problems.

SMTP connection details

Enter the same host, credentials, and security settings your application uses. We’ll connect and stream the SMTP exchange below.

Diagnostic test
The test uses the credentials you enter only to perform this SMTP connection test. The live transcript below shows exactly where the connection succeeds or fails.

What this catches

See where the SMTP connection actually breaks.

Instead of guessing from a generic “couldn’t send” message, the transcript shows the server responses involved in connecting, authenticating, negotiating security, and sending.

Connection problems

Confirm the hostname and port actually accept an SMTP connection.

TLS / SSL problems

Try the exact security mode required by your SMTP provider.

Authentication failures

See the SMTP server’s response when the username, password, or auth method is rejected.

Sending failures

Inspect the conversation if the server accepts a connection but rejects the sender, recipient, or message.
