Nodemailer: { [Error: connect ETIMEDOUT] code: 'ETIMEDOUT', errno: 'ETIMEDOUT', syscall: 'connect' }

[m4a1fox]

Hello all. I want create a simple sending email. My code is:

var smtpTransposrt = nodemailer.createTransport('SMTP', {
service: 'Gmail',
auth: {
user: '[email protected]',
pass: 'mypass'
}
});

var text = 'Hello';
text = text + 'some big text here';

var mailOptions = {
from: 'max',
to: '[email protected]',
subject: 'Text',
text: 'Text sdfgsfgsdf gsdf gsdfg s',
html: text
}
app.get('/sendmail', function (req, res) {

smtpTransposrt.sendMail(mailOptions, function(error, request){
    if(error){
        console.log(error);
    }else{
        req.send('Good');
    }
})

});

When I go /sendmail in consol I have a error:
{ [Error: connect ETIMEDOUT] code: 'ETIMEDOUT', errno: 'ETIMEDOUT', syscall: 'connect' }
{ [Error: socket hang up] code: 'ECONNRESET', sslError: undefined }
{ [Error: connect ETIMEDOUT] code: 'ETIMEDOUT', errno: 'ETIMEDOUT', syscall: 'connect' }

What I do wrong?

Is your server behind a proxy or is there an outbound firewall? Can you connect to the Gmail SMTP from command line:

openssl s_client -crlf -connect smtp.gmail.com:465

The last line of the output from this command should be something like this:

220 mx.google.com ESMTP w9sm15181754lbk.7 - gsmtp

smtp.gmail.com can be pretty cranky at accepting connections

Sometimes changing to using smtp.googlemail.com works better

I am also having the same error while sending mail. I am behind http proxy. Can you suggest how can i send mail using proxy.....

I had the same problem and the following worked for me:

"Gmail2":{
    transport: "SMTP",
    host: "smtp.gmail.com",
    secureConnection: false,
    port: 587,
    requiresAuth: true,
    domains: ["gmail.com", "googlemail.com"]
}

You might consider adding it to the wellknown services.

var smtpConfig = nodemailer.createTransport("SMTP",{
host: "smtp.gmail.com",
secureConnection: false,
port: 587,
requiresAuth: true,
domains: ["gmail.com", "googlemail.com"],
auth: {
user: "[email protected]",
pass: "mypass"
}
});

This worked for me. Its amazing

Here is my code

             var transporter = nodemailer.createTransport({
    service: "Gmail",
    port: 587,
    auth: {
      user: 'myemail',
      pass: 'mypassword'
    }
  });

  var mailOptions = {
    from: '[email protected]',
    to: 'to@gmail,
    subject: 'Sending Email using Node.js',
    text: 'That was easy!'
  };

  transporter.sendMail(mailOptions, function(error, info){
    if(error){
        res.status(400);
        return res.json({
      success:false,
      message:'Unable to send email',
      error:error
        });
    }
   else
   {
          res.status(200);
      return res.json({
      success:true,
      message:'Email Sent',
      data: info.response
          });
   }
  });

And here is my error

"code": "ECONNECTION",
"errno": "ECONNREFUSED",
"syscall": "connect",
"address": "173.194.68.108",
"port": 587,

Here is my working solution, You can try this

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

  function sendEmail(to, subject, html){
    nodemailer.createTestAccount((err, account) => {
        var transporter = nodemailer.createTransport(smtpTransport({
            host: 'hostname', 
            port:465,
            auth: {
                user: '[email protected]',
                pass: 'password'
            }
            }));
        let mailOptions = {
            from: '"Admin" <[email protected]>',
            to: to,
            subject: subject,
            html: html 
        };

        transporter.sendMail(mailOptions, (error, info) => {
            if (error) {
                console.log('Error', error);
            }
            else{
                console.log('Success', info);
            }
        });
    });
 }

for host:'hostname', are you using smtp.gmail.com?

[amitdubey8888]

I'm using aws smtp server "smtp.mail.us-east-1.awsapps.com". But if you want to send mail from gmail then you have to allow less secure app from gmail setting & hostname will be same 'smtp.gmail.com'. Allow from here https://myaccount.google.com/lesssecureapps
