SMTP spam honeypot (receiver-oriented) for capturing spam/abuse mail traffic.

Protocol survey

Surface UHBS plugin? Graded? Quick Full
SMTP yes yes 45.07 / F 44.96 / F

Named product is evaluation proof only — not a UHBS endorsement.

For CTI analysts

  • Supports spam campaign and malware-delivery URL extraction from captured mail.
  • Complements Mailoney-style SMTP sensors depending on deployment topology.

Primary signals you can expect (when logging is wired): SMTP sessions and message content captured by SHIVA receiver.

For blue teams / detection engineering

  • Quarantine and detonate attachments in isolated analysis — never on the honeypot OS.
  • Confirm the graded lab was receiver-only; verify your deploy cannot relay.

Trust & limitations

  • This page is evaluation proof under UHBS 4.2.2 — not a certification or vendor ranking.
  • Prefer full/ artifacts over quick/ for operational decisions.
  • Re-run via TUTORIAL.md; environment notes in METHODOLOGY.md.
