I have spent couple of days implementing my own mail server using node.js. I used modules like "smtp-server" for creating smtp server and also "smtp-connection" to connect and send mail to it. But I'm getting confused because I don't know how to send mails from my smtp server to providers smtp servers like google or yahoo.
Can anyone help me?
Here is my code for more information:
My index.js file:
var SMTPServer = require('smtp-server').SMTPServer;
var port = 9025;
var serverOptions = {
name: "smtp-interceptor",
onConnect: onConnect,
onAuth: onAuth,
onData: onData
};
var server = new SMTPServer(serverOptions);
server.listen(port, 'localhost', function () {
console.log('SMTP server is listening on port ' + port);
});
function onConnect(session, callback) {
console.log('Connected');
return callback(); // Accept the connection
}
function onData(stream, session, callback) {
stream.pipe(process.stdout); // print message to console
console.log('Session \n', session.envelope);
stream.on('end', callback);
}
function onAuth(auth, session, callback){
if(auth.username !== 'Mahan' || auth.password !== 'Tafreshi') {
return callback(new Error('Invalid username or password'));
}
callback(null, {user: 123}); // where 123 is the user id or similar property
}
And my connection.js file:
var SMTPConnection = require('smtp-connection');
process.env.NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED = "0";
var connection = new SMTPConnection({
host: 'localhost',
port: 9025,
secure: false
});
connection.connect(function (){
console.log('Connceted to SMTP server');
var auth = {
user: 'Mahan',
pass: 'Tafreshi'
};
connection.login(auth, function (err) {
if(err)
return console.log('Login Failed \n', err);
console.log('Login Successful');
var envelope = {
from: "[email protected]",
to: "[email protected]"
};
var message = 'Test message1';
connection.send(envelope, message, function (err, info) {
if(err)
return console.log('Error : ' + err);
console.log('Message sent');
console.log('Accepted : ' + info.accepted);
console.log('Rejected : ' + info.rejected);
console.log(info.response);
connection.quit();
console.log('Quit connection');
connection.close();
});
});
});
