mail-send is a Rust library to build, sign and send e-mail messages via SMTP. It includes the following features:

Usage Example

Send a message via an SMTP server that requires authentication:

    // Build a simple multipart message
    let message = MessageBuilder::new()
        .from(("John Doe", "john@example.com"))
        .to(vec![
            ("Jane Doe", "jane@example.com"),
            ("James Smith", "james@test.com"),
        ])
        .subject("Hi!")
        .html_body("<h1>Hello, world!</h1>")
        .text_body("Hello world!");

    // Connect to the SMTP submissions port, upgrade to TLS and
    // authenticate using the provided credentials.
    SmtpClientBuilder::new("smtp.gmail.com", 587)
        .implicit_tls(false)
        .credentials(("john", "p4ssw0rd"))
        .connect()
        .await
        .unwrap()
        .send(message)
        .await
        .unwrap();

Sign a message with DKIM and send it via an SMTP relay server:

    // Build a simple text message with a single attachment
    let message = MessageBuilder::new()
        .from(("John Doe", "john@example.com"))
        .to("jane@example.com")
        .subject("Howdy!")
        .text_body("These pretzels are making me thirsty.")
        .attachment("image/png", "pretzels.png", [1, 2, 3, 4].as_ref());

    // Sign an e-mail message using RSA-SHA256
    let pk_rsa = RsaKey::<Sha256>::from_rsa_pem(TEST_KEY).unwrap();
    let signer = DkimSigner::from_key(pk_rsa)
        .domain("example.com")
        .selector("default")
        .headers(["From", "To", "Subject"])
        .expiration(60 * 60 * 7); // Number of seconds before this signature expires (optional)

    // Connect to an SMTP relay server over TLS.
    // Signs each message with the configured DKIM signer.
    SmtpClientBuilder::new("smtp.gmail.com", 465)
        .connect()
        .await
        .unwrap()
        .send_signed(message, &signer)
        .await
        .unwrap();

More examples of how to build messages are available in the mail-builder crate. Please note that this library does not support parsing e-mail messages as this functionality is provided separately by the mail-parser crate.
