## Products

- **[Email API/SMTP](https://docs.mailtrap.io/email-api-smtp/overview.md)** — Email sending infrastructure. Supports transactional and bulk email streams via REST API or SMTP, with email templates, real-time analytics, deliverability tools (SPF/DKIM/DMARC, dedicated IPs, suppression lists), webhooks, and email logs.
- **[Email Sandbox](https://docs.mailtrap.io/email-sandbox/overview.md)** — Safe email testing environment for development and QA. Captures outgoing emails without delivering them, with HTML validation, spam score checking, bounce simulation, and load testing — so bugs are caught before emails are delivered.
- **[Email Marketing](https://docs.mailtrap.io/email-marketing/overview.md)** — Campaign creation, scheduling, and analytics for marketing emails. Includes contact management, list segmentation, automation sequences, and campaign performance tracking.
