A Go library for composing and sending email over SMTP with a simple, human-friendly API. It supports text and HTML bodies, attachments, custom headers, read receipts, and a pool of reusable SMTP connections.

Use cases

  • send email from a Go application via SMTP
  • send HTML and plain-text emails with attachments
  • send transactional email through Gmail SMTP
  • build a pool of reusable SMTP connections for high-throughput sending
  • parse an email from an io.Reader

When to choose

  • you need a lightweight, dependency-free way to send email in Go
  • you want simple struct-based email composition with attachments and headers
  • you need connection pooling for concurrent SMTP sending

When to avoid

  • you need an email-sending service abstraction with providers like SendGrid or SES
  • you need full MIME parsing of complex inbound email
  • your project requires a library under very active development
