    Litmus takes over PutsMail, continues development

PutsMail was originally developed by Pablo Cantero, a software developer based in São Paulo, Brazil.

Pablo experienced first-hand the difficulty of sending HTML emails to himself for cross-platform testing. He built PutsMail.com to help others in the same situation and email designers around the world loved it.

In 2014, Litmus purchased PutsMail and took over its development, continuing to offer it as a standalone free tool for email marketers to perform quick tests of their campaigns.

Once you’ve run a few tests with Litmus PutsMail, check out Litmus' full email testing suite to ensure an on-brand, error-free subscriber experience. Litmus helps you get more out of your emails with the power to test and preview in 90+ email clients—including Dark Mode—in one spot. In seconds.
