SMTP for Node.js — nodemailer Transport in 5 Lines

The problem for Node.js developers

• nodemailer ships transport, not analytics.
• You write your own bounce-handling, suppression list, and template engine.
• Marketing emails live in a separate tool no one wants to maintain.

How RAPID SMTP solves it

Setup in 3 steps

1. `npm i nodemailer`
2. Create a transport pointing at RAPID SMTP.
3. Call transport.sendMail({ ... }) — done.

Code snippet

import nodemailer from "nodemailer";

const transport = nodemailer.createTransport({
  host: "smtp.rapidhostbd.com",
  port: 587,
  secure: false,
  auth: { user: process.env.RAPID_USER, pass: process.env.RAPID_PASS },
});

await transport.sendMail({
  from: '"Your Brand" <hello@yourdomain.com>',
  to: "customer@example.com",
  subject: "Welcome!",
  html: "<h1>Hi there</h1>",
});
