Solution

Edit (april 2022) : this issue has been fixed in nodemailer v6.7.3 !

I’ve the exact same error !

I don’t know why, but using smtp-mail.outlook.com in place of smpt.live.com (which is used by default by nodemailer when you use the outlook/hotmail predefined service) works well and fix this error !

const transporter = nodemailer.createTransport({
    host: 'smtp-mail.outlook.com',
    port: 587,
    auth: {
        user: 'your-email-address',
        pass: 'your-password'
    }
})
