node_mailer sucks #20

Closed Marak closed 13 years ago

Marak commented 13 years ago

Are any of the other mailer libraries good enough to warrant depreciating this library, or should we push forward?

malkomalko commented 13 years ago

I like https://github.com/andris9/Nodemailer

Not a lot of followers yet but it is really feature packed and put together well.

Marak commented 13 years ago

It seems good, but I don't have much time to test throughly. I'll keep supporting this library until there is a clear better solution.

Just noticed emailjs -- https://github.com/eleith/emailjs

Another one, https://github.com/dresende/node-smtp

Marak commented 13 years ago

Does anyone know which has the most solid SMTP implementation? I think the best course of action for the node_mailer project at this point would be to vendor one of the other libs for its SMTP library and then build a slightly friendly API on top that replicates the current node_mailer API.

mikeal commented 13 years ago

SMTP alone isn't hard at all, but there are a ton of extensions people use that you'll want to implement.

dresende commented 13 years ago

Could you tell me some of them? I only see auth extensions as essential..

Marak commented 13 years ago

Okay, it's been decided that this library will.....LIVE.

Backup troops are incoming with a new version in the next couple of weeks. The current version is operational, but I'd be wary of using it for sending any large lists or really important messages.

Marak commented 13 years ago

New version of the library has been completed thanks to @bmeck and @andris9. There is a blog post coming soon explaining the changes. Until then, the code is all published and live...get at it!

I was testing several libraries and Nodemailer (https://github.com/andris9/Nodemailer) works for me.

Marak commented 13 years ago

@balor We are using NodeMailer as a dep now, did you read the whole thread? I'm closing this now to avoid further confusion.
