Next, let’s define the server and the port of the email service we use. In my case, since I use Gmail, the server and port will be that of Gmail’s. However, if you use a service other than Gmail, you can simply Google the server address.
Let’s initiate a secure connection.
We now need a valid Gmail account (both username and password) to log into. In my case, I created a dummy account just for this. Please note that your Gmail account’s setting must be such that the “less secure apps” (manage your Gmail account >> Security >> Less secure apps access) are on.
To define the content that I will be sending:
And finally, to send the message, we use sendmail(from, to, message).
The entire code would look something like this:
Once you’ve written the code, the next step is to run it:
Easy, breezy, beautiful code to send an email.
