Inspired by [MailCatcher](http://mailcatcher.me/), easier to install.
Go-MailHog is a rewritten version of [MailHog](https://github.com/ian-kent/MailHog), which was born out of [M3MTA](https://github.com/ian-kent/M3MTA).
Go was chosen for portability - MailHog runs without installation on multiple platforms.
