I was curious about the new nodejs_compat mode and found that nodemailer now works in it. SMTP transport still doesn’t work, but you can import the library, build an email payload, and probably use other transports like Amazon SES.

I previously tried building my own email encoding, but it’s quite tricky. It’s nice to be able to rely on nodemailer for this now.

I was able to build a mail payload like this. GitHub Gist for reference.

import nodemailer from 'nodemailer'\nimport { Readable } from 'node:stream'\n\nconst transporter = nodemailer.createTransport({\n    streamTransport: true,\n    newline: 'windows',\n})\n\nexport default {\n    async fetch(request, env, ctx): Promise<Response> {\n        const url = new URL(request.url)\n\n        const from = url.searchParams.get('from')\n        const to = url.searchParams.get('to')\n        const subject = url.searchParams.get('subject')\n        const text = url.searchParams.get('text')\n        const html = url.searchParams.get('html')\n\n        const mail = await transporter.sendMail({\n            from: from ?? undefined,\n            to: to ?? undefined,\n            subject: subject ?? undefined,\n            text: text ?? undefined,\n            html: html ?? undefined,\n        })\n\n        const readableWebStream = Readable.toWeb(mail.message as Readable)\n\n        return new Response(readableWebStream as any, {\n            headers: {\n                'content-type': 'text/plain',\n            },\n        })\n    },\n} satisfies ExportedHandler<Env>\n
