# How it works
The heart of Open Trashmail is a python powered SMTP server that listens on incoming emails and stores them as json objects. The server doesn't have to know the right Email domain, it will just catch everything it receives. You only have to expose port 25 to the web and set an MX entry of your domain pointing to the IP adress of your machine
The heart of Open Trashmail is a **python powered SMTP server** that listens on incoming emails and stores them as json objects. The server doesn't have to know the right Email domain, it will just **catch everything** it receives. You only have to **expose port 25 to the web** and set an **MX record** of your domain pointing to the IP adress of your machine.
The server then saves all received emails as JSON objects and the web interface can access it.
