I wanted to get familiar with vue.js so I made this simple web app that analyses hops taken by an email to reach you. <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;akshayKMR&#x2F;emailtrail-webapp" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;akshayKMR&#x2F;emailtrail-webapp</a><p>It shows hostnames, protocol used, timestamp, delay of the servers involved in chronological order.<p>The extraction and processing of all this info is actually done on the server, using a python module I made earlier <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;akshayKMR&#x2F;emailtrail" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;akshayKMR&#x2F;emailtrail</a><p>The frontend calls the api server and then presents the analysis in a way that is easy to understand (converted to your local time zone, presentation etc.)<p>Similar tools are :-<p>MessageHeader in G suite toolbox: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;toolbox.googleapps.com&#x2F;apps&#x2F;messageheader&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;toolbox.googleapps.com&#x2F;apps&#x2F;messageheader&#x2F;</a><p>Message Header Analyzer by Microsoft: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;testconnectivity.microsoft.com&#x2F;MHA&#x2F;Pages&#x2F;mha.aspx" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;testconnectivity.microsoft.com&#x2F;MHA&#x2F;Pages&#x2F;mha.aspx</a><p>Cheers!
