+Integrate Mailhog
+*****************
+
+This section will guide you through getting Mailhog integrated into the Devilbox.

+Overview
+========
+
+The Devilbox ships various example configurations to overwrite the default stack. Those files are
+located under ``compose/`` in the Devilbox git directory.
+
+In case of Mailhog, the file is ``compose/docker-compose.override.yml-mailhog``. This file
+must be copied into the root of the Devilbox git directory.
+

+
+Instructions
+============
+
+Copy example docker-compose.override.yml
+----------------------------------------
+
+Copy the mailhog Docker Compose overwrite file into the root of the Devilbox git directory.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ host> cp compose/docker-compose.override.yml-mailhog docker-compose.override.yml
+
+.. seealso::
+ * :ref:`docker_compose_override_yml`
+ * :ref:`add_your_own_docker_image`
+ * :ref:`overwrite_existing_docker_image`
+
+
+Adjust PHP settings
+-------------------
+
+The next step is to tell PHP that it should use a different mail forwarder.
+
+Let's assume you are using PHP 7.2.
+
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ # Navigate to the PHP ini configuration directory of your chosen version
+ host> cd cfg/php-ini-7.2
+
+ # Create and open a new *.ini file
+ host> vi mailhog.ini
+
+Add the following content to the newly created ini file:
+
+.. code-block:: ini
+ :caption: mailhog.ini
+
+ [mail function]
+ sendmail_path = '/usr/local/bin/mhsendmail --smtp-addr="mailhog:1025"'
+
+.. seealso:: :ref:`php_ini`
+
+
+Start the Devilbox
+------------------
+
+The final step is to start the Devilbox with mailhog.
+
+Let's assume you want to start ``php``, ``httpd``, ``bind``, ``mysql`` and ``mailhog``.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ host> docker-compose up -d php httpd bind mysql mailhog
+
+.. seealso:: :ref:`start_the_devilbox`
+
+
+Functionality
+-------------
+
+* Once the Devilbox is running, visit http://localhost:8025 in your browser.
+* Any email send by any of the Devilbox managed projects will then appear in Mailhog
