Can we use SMTP for sending our emails (to improve code portability) ? #62

Today while discussing sending emails in one of our projects the topic of sending emails from within the Azure platform came up... Obviously they don't have a Service for sending emails yet: https://www.google.com/webhp?q=azure+email+service instead they recommend using the Sendgrid service: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/app-service-web/sendgrid-dotnet-how-to-send-email

this project is currently using the aws-sdk to send email, when we could use SMTP. http://docs.aws.amazon.com/ses/latest/DeveloperGuide/send-email-smtp.html

This would help us to send email using a different provider later on... Thoughts?

Nodemailer could be an option, I've been using it for a while with my Gmail credentials. https://github.com/ronanyeah/rotools/blob/master/docs.md#emailer https://github.com/ronanyeah/rotools/blob/master/src/emailer.js
