A small, quick and efficient multipurpose server, which your can enable and disable instantly:

  • A HTTP/S proxy server that allows websites or other users to use your PC as a middleman (which can bypass websites that block their own IP addresses)
  • A SMTP emulator that allows tesing mail clients by making them think your PC is a mail server

Installation

None.

Usage

Just run the program, choose your usage and click Start.

HTTP/S

To let a website or someone else's browser enter sites through you as a middleman:

  • Define your website or someone else's browser to use your external IP as a proxy (the program will show you which IP to use).

SMTP

To get SMTP messages:

  1. Send a message from local mail clients (like https://github.com/lwcorp/lwblat) to SMTP server 127.0.0.1 (which is your own computer).
  2. The program will show the message and make the mailer think the message was actually sent.

Advanced usage

In a possibly unique fashion, the server supports not just TCP but also UDP connections!
With UDP being unpredictable and not really suited for a 2-sided communication, testing it could lead to some interesting results.

System Requirements

Windows 200X, Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7-11
