I am trying to send a email in meteor with process.env and smtp gmail

Question

I am using the following to send emails which works on localhost but not my server.

// server
Meteor.startup(function () {
    process.env.MAIL_URL=\"smtp://         


        

Answer 1

Just use the email package with

meteor add email

Then sending email will work. Mine works with port 587 in my config.

Meteor.startup(function () {
    process.env.MAIL_URL = 'smtp://user%40gmail.com:password@smtp.gmail.com:587';
});
