Email Sender

Netlify lambda function that is able to send emails.

It uses https://www.mailjet.com/ as an SMTP provider and sends emails from [email protected]. The limit is set to 200/day by SMTP provider.

During testing or development it's a good idea to use service like mailtrap.io that will allow you to avoid spaming an actual email address. It require an account and proper configuration in .env file as normal SMTP provider.

   • EMAIL_CLIENT_HOST = ...

   • EMAIL_CLIENT_USER = ...
   • EMAIL_CLIENT_PASS = ...
   • EMAIL_FROM = ...
4. Run npm ci
5. Run npm run lambda-serve
6. Serverless function will start on localhost:9000/sendEmail
