node-red-node-email =================== Node-RED nodes to send and receove simple emails. **Note** : This is the same node as is/was in the core of Node-RED. If you already have it installed you do NOT need this node. Pre-requisite ------------- You will need valid email credintials for your email server. Install ------- Run the following command in the root directory of your Node-RED install. Usually this is `~/.node-red` . npm install node-red-node-email Usage ----- Nodes to send and receive simple emails. ###Input Repeatedly gets a **single email** from an IMAP server and forwards on as a msg if not already seen. The subject is loaded into **msg.topic** and **msg.payload** is the plain text body. If there is text/html then that is returned in **msg.html**. **msg.from** and **msg.date** are also set if you need them. Additionally **msg.header** contains the complete header object including **to**, **cc** and other potentially useful properties. **Note:** this node *only* gets the most recent single email from the inbox, so set the repeat (polling) time appropriately. Uses the *imap* npm module. ###Output Sends the **msg.payload** as an email, with a subject of **msg.topic**. The default message recipient can be configured in the node, if it is left blank it should be set using the **msg.to** property of the incoming message. The payload can be html format. If the payload is a binary buffer then it will be converted to an attachment. The filename should be set using **msg.filename**. Optionally **msg.description** can be added for the body text. Alternatively you may provide **msg.attachments** which should contain an array of one or more attachments in nodemailer format. Uses the *nodemailer* npm module.
