MailSlurp or Zunoy Sandbox: which fits your team?

MailSlurp suits test suites that create throwaway inboxes through code. Zunoy Sandbox suits teams that want shared inboxes everyone can open in a browser, with spam scoring, failure simulation, firewall rules and shared 2FA codes alongside.

Key takeaways

Create one inbox per environment (dev, staging, QA), then replace your MailSlurp API key and base URL with the Sandbox inbox’s credentials.

Every email is checked for HTML and broken links, with spam analysis on paid plans, and you can add failure simulation, firewall rules and auto-forwarding per inbox.

Inboxes are shared with the whole team by default, with no per-seat limit on who can view them.

Keep MailSlurp running until Sandbox is verified. There is no automatic importer, but teams of 5 or more get free hands-on migration.

Free forever plan covering email, SMS, webhooks and TOTP. Paid plans start at $5 a month, billed annually.
