Using Webmail with Nodemailer

Question

I used gmail with node mailer to create a login system in js node. In development mode I used gmail.

const sendEmail = async options =>{
//1)Create a transporter
// const transporter = nodemailer.createTransport({
    service: 'gmail',
     auth: {
         user: process.env.EMAIL_SEND_SESSION,
         pass: process.env.EMAIL_SEND_PASSWORD,
   }
});
//2) Define the mail options
const mailOptions = {
    from:'Creative Point <[email protected]>',
    to:options.email,
    subject:options.subject,
    html:options.message
}
//3) Actually send the email
await transporter.sendMail(mailOptions);
};

But in production mode I would like to use webmail,I received when I created the data and port account on cpanel.

const transporter = nodemailer.createTransport({
    service:'smtp.specialsoft.ro ',
    port: 465,
    auth: {
        user: process.env.EMAIL_SEND_SESSIONCPANEL,
        pass: process.env.EMAIL_SEND_PASSWORDCPANEL,
  }
});

But it gives me the next mistake.

Error: There was an error sending the email.Try again later!Error: Invalid login: 535-5.7.8 Username 
and Password not accepted. Learn more at

I haven't found anything relevant on the internet about this error.

Answer 1

I solved the problem by following the steps below.

1. I installed a module: nodemailer-smtp-transport.

    const smtpTransport = require('nodemailer-smtp-transport');
   

2. I corrected the host name and some options.

   host:'mail.mydomani.ro'
   secureConnection: false,
   tls: {
      rejectUnauthorized: false
    }
   

3)I integrated the module nodemailer-smtp-transport in the transporter.

 const transporter = nodemailer.createTransport(smtpTransport({
    host:'mail.mydomanin.ro',
    secureConnection: false,
    tls: {
      rejectUnauthorized: false
    },
    port: 587,
    auth: {
        user: process.env.EMAIL_SEND_SESSION,
        pass: process.env.EMAIL_SEND_PASSWORD,
  }
}));
