Permanent storage

[4d4ch4u32]

Currently, the mails are stored in a in-memory database (SQLite3).

I use the mailcatcher in docker for local development and staging environments. When a deploy is done, all docker containers will be restarted. The mails which are already catched are lost then.

Is it possible to use a permanent storage?

Not possible at the moment. Mail catcher is meant to be pretty lightweight and ephemeral, and persistence has always felt like more trouble than it’s worth.

MailHog is great if you want more options.

Please follow #2 if you’re keen.
