Go Simple Mail

The best way to send emails in Go with SMTP Keep Alive and Timeout for Connect and Send.

IMPORTANT

Examples in this README are for v2.2.0 and above. Examples for older versions can be found here.

Go 1.13+ is required.

Breaking change in 2.2.0: The signature of SetBody and AddAlternative used to accept strings ("text/html" and "text/plain") and not require on of the contentType constants (TextHTML or TextPlain). Upgrading, while not quite following semantic versioning, is quite simple:

  email := mail.NewMSG()
- email.SetBody("text/html", htmlBody)
- email.AddAlternative("text/plain", plainBody)
+ email.SetBody(mail.TextHTML, htmlBody)
+ email.AddAlternative(mail.TextPlain, plainBody)

Introduction

Go Simple Mail is a simple and efficient package to send emails. It is well tested and documented.

Go Simple Mail can only send emails using an SMTP server. But the API is flexible and it is easy to implement other methods for sending emails using a local Postfix, an API, etc.

This package contains (and is based on) two packages by Joe Grasse:

A lot of changes in Go Simple Mail were sent with not response.

Documentation

https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/xhit/go-simple-mail/v2?tab=doc

Note 1: by default duplicated recipients throws an error, from v2.13.0 you can use email.AllowDuplicateAddress = true to avoid the check.

Note 2: by default Bcc header is not set in email. From v2.14.0 you can use email.AddBccToHeader = true to add this.

Note 3: by default all addresses are validated against RFC5322. Setting email.UseProvidedAddress = true skips this validation, but requires you to ensure a valid address is sent.

Send with custom connection

It's possible to use a custom connection with custom dieler, like a dialer that uses a proxy server, etc...

With this, these servers params are ignored: Host, Port. You have total control of the connection.

Example using a conn for proxy:

package main

import (
	"crypto/tls"
	"fmt"
	"log"
	"net"

	mail "github.com/xhit/go-simple-mail/v2"
	"golang.org/x/net/proxy"
)

func main() {
	server := mail.NewSMTPClient()

	host := "smtp.example.com"
	port := 587
	proxyAddr := "proxy.server"

	conn, err := getCustomConnWithProxy(proxyAddr, host, port)
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}

	server.Username = "[email protected]"
	server.Password = "examplepass"
	server.Encryption = mail.EncryptionSTARTTLS
	server.CustomConn = conn

	smtpClient, err := server.Connect()
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}

	email := mail.NewMSG()

	err = email.SetFrom("From Example <[email protected]>").AddTo("[email protected]").Send(smtpClient)
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}

}

func getCustomConnWithProxy(proxyAddr, host string, port int) (net.Conn, error) {
	dial, err := proxy.SOCKS5("tcp", proxyAddr, nil, proxy.Direct)
	if err != nil {
		return nil, err
	}

	dialer, err := dial.Dial("tcp", fmt.Sprintf("%s:%d", host, port))
	if err != nil {
		return nil, err
	}

	conf := &tls.Config{ServerName: host}
	conn := tls.Client(dialer, conf)

	return conn, nil
}
