MailKite Server
MailKite's pre-1.0 open-source protocol edges and reference local backend. Run the local stack deliberately, verify signed incoming events, and use only its documented SDK-compatible API subset.
Start with the first guide, then choose a sending, receiving, or feedback task. Each walkthrough identifies permissions, operational checks, and the boundary between the service and MailKite. Refer to the official MailKite Server documentation for current platform requirements.

Deploy MailKite Server with the reference local backend
Choose the pre-1.0 local deployment deliberately, persist SQLite/blobs, and distinguish backend/console startup from protocol-edge readiness.
Receive signed incoming mail from MailKite Server
Connect the MX edge to the intended backend and verify local webhook deliveries with the MailKite SDK before processing application work.
Use the MailKite SDK with the local server's supported API
Point the client at your own backend, use a local account key, and distinguish the documented compatibility subset from hosted-only features.
