The virtualhost is set on the htdocs directory.

Mails

MailCatcher is installed and configured into the /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini file.

How it works

If mailcatcher is stopped: all emails are lost.

If mailcatcher is started: all emails are catched.

If you want to start MailCatcher, simply run this command (with vagrant user) : mailcatcher --ip 0.0.0.0

Then go to : http://definedhostname:1080

If you need to stop the mailcatcher daemon : Click on "Quit" on the top right corner of the MailCatcher Web UI.
