I am working with MFMailComposeViewController and all seems good. The class indicates the mail was sent, but I have never setup email on the simulator and don’t know how. So if its sent, what email server did it send it to?

The [mailClass canSendMail] also returns YES so it thinks its all ok.

Does anyone know how to setup the simulator for testing this 100%

    No, the simulator does not actually support email accounts or allow you to really send mail.

    [MFMailComposeViewController canSendMail] returns YES to allow you to fully test your mail generation and compose code paths. As far as your app should be concerned, it behaves exactly like a real device (since the user can choose to cancel out anyways on the real thing), although you cannot inspect the actual contents of the resulting email without testing on a real device.
