SMTP is a mail protocol, which is used to enumerate users and send phising maills to the existing user

## User Enumeration

### Manual

nc 10.10.10.10 25
<banner> # check for vulnerability with banner 
HELO # start the connection
ELHO all
VRFY root # verify root user
mail from: dn@oscp # attacker mail
rcpt to: root@localhost # verify user with recipient
```
