responseCode: 535,
command: 'AUTH PLAIN' }
I understand that my error is the login but my password and email is correct.
My code :
var nodemailer = require('nodemailer');
var transporter = nodemailer.createTransport({
service: 'gmail',
auth: {
user: 'example@gmail.com',
pass: 'here I put my password'
}
});
var mailOptions = {
from: 'from@gmail.com',
to: 'to@gmail.com',
subject: 'Sending Email using Node.js',
text: 'That was easy!'
};
transporter.sendMail(mailOptions, function(error, info){
if (error) {
console.log(error);
} else {
console.log('Email sent: ' + info.response);
}
});
my version of node and npm :
root@me:~# node --version
v8.11.3
root@me:~# npm --v
6.1.0
