SMTP email node

Back to debating GUI vs. msg properties I guess! The smtp email node is missing literally every single setting for an email message.

Where are the entries for Subject, To, From, CC, message body, attachments, etc.?

Even if it’s decided that messages take precedence over the GUI settings, there should at least BE settings in the GUI, shouldn’t there?

Hi TGreer,

The @objectif-lune/node-red-contrib-smtp-mail is designed specifically to handle pre-rendered email content generated by the “email content” node (which means content rendered by OL Connect templates). If you require a more generic email node, you can install the node-red-node-email using the Manage Palette option in the Node-RED menu (upper right corner). I think this should meet your needs.

Best,

Erik

I understand this, truly. Thanks for the info on the existing smtp-mail node.

However, if the “attachments” array, the body property, and the text property could take PATHS and/or expressions in addition to pointers to the filestore, we’d have a single Connect node that could handle Connect Email sections as well as simple, direct emails.
