# Deprecated

This package is deprecated, use these new repositories instead:

 * Gomail: https://github.com/go-gomail/gomail

 * quotedprintable: https://github.com/alexcesaro/quotedprintable

 * mailer has been merged into Gomail

The new version of Gomail has new features, better performances and a simpler

API!

Here is the list of breaking changes and how to update your code:

## Import

Before:

    import "github.com/alexcesaro/mail/gomail"

After:

    import "gopkg.in/gomail.v1"

## Add*Header functions

Functions AddHeader, AddAddressHeader and AddDateHeader were removed.

Before:

    msg.SetHeader("To", "[email protected]")

    msg.AddHeader("To", "[email protected]")

After:

    msg.SetHeader("From", "[email protected]", "[email protected]")

To replace AddAddressHeader and AddDateHeader you can use the new functions FormatAddress and FormatDate with SetHeader or SetHeaders.

## Attach a file

Before:

    if err := msg.Attach("/home/Alex/lolcat.jpg"); err != nil {

        panic(err)

    }

After:

    f, err := gomail.OpenFile("/home/Alex/lolcat.jpg")

    if err != nil {

        panic(err)

    }

    msg.Attach(f)

## NewCustomMessage

Before:

    msg := NewMessage("ISO-8859-1", Base64)

After:

    msg := NewMessage(SetCharset("ISO-8859-1"), SetEncoding(Base64))

## Export

Before:

    m, err := msg.Export()

    if err != nil {

        panic(err)

    }

After:

    m := msg.Export()

## Constants

Constants `QuotedPrintable` and `Base64` had type `string` and now have type

`Encoding`. If you just used these constants in NewCustomMessage there is

nothing to do.

This repository contains mail packages for Go:

 - [gomail](#gomail) is the main package of this repository, it provides a

   simple interface to easily write and send emails.

 - [mailer](#mailer) provides functions to easily send emails. It should be used

   with or inside a package that helps writing emails like it is done in gomail.

 - [quotedprintable](#quotedprintable) is a package that implements

   quoted-printable and message header encoding. Someday, it might enter the Go

   standard library.

You are more than welcome to ask questions on the [Go mailing-list](https://groups.google.com/d/topic/golang-nuts/ywPpNlmSt6U/discussion) and open issues here if you find bugs.

# gomail

[Documentation](http://godoc.org/github.com/alexcesaro/mail/gomail)

Package gomail provides a simple interface to easily write and send emails.

Example:

    package main

    import (

        "log"

        "github.com/alexcesaro/mail/gomail"

    )

    func main() {

        msg := gomail.NewMessage()

        msg.SetAddressHeader("From", "[email protected]", "Alex")

        msg.SetHeader("To", "[email protected]")

        msg.AddHeader("To", "[email protected]")

        msg.SetHeader("Subject", "Hello!")

        msg.SetBody("text/plain", "Hello Bob and Cora!")

        msg.AddAlternative("text/html", "Hello Bob and Cora!")

        if err := msg.Attach("/home/Alex/lolcat.jpg"); err != nil {

            log.Println(err)

            return

        }

        m := gomail.NewMailer("smtp.example.com", "user", "123456", 25)

        if err := m.Send(msg); err != nil { // This will send the email to Bob and Cora

            log.Println(err)

        }

    }

# mailer

[Documentation](http://godoc.org/github.com/alexcesaro/mail/mailer)

Package mailer provides functions to easily send emails.

This package can be used as a standalone but if you want to send emails with

non-ASCII characters or with attachment you should use it with or inside a

package that helps writing emails like it is done in gomail.

    package main

    import (

        "log"

        "net/mail"

        "strings"

        "github.com/alexcesaro/mail/mailer"

    )

    func main() {

        msg := &mail.Message{

            mail.Header{

                "From":         {"[email protected]"},

                "To":           {"[email protected]", "[email protected]"},

                "Subject":      {"Hello!"},

                "Content-Type": {"text/plain"},

            },

            strings.NewReader("Hello, how are you ?"),

        }

        m := mailer.NewMailer("smtp.example.com", "user", "123456", 25)

        if err := m.Send(msg); err != nil { // This will send the email to Bob and Cora

            log.Println(err)

        }

    }

# quotedprintable

as specified by RFC 2045 and RFC 2047.
