# Email service
|
||
|
|
||
|
New since v4.0.0 is an email service allowing us to send reset password and welcome mails to new users.
|
||
|
In order for this to work you'll need to tell unleash what SMTP service you'd like to send mails from.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If the service is not configured you'll see a log line every time you add a new user saying
|
||
|
```bash
|
||
|
[2021-05-07T12:59:04.572] [WARN] routes/user-controller.ts - email was not sent to the user because email configuration is lacking
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Configuring
|
||
|
|
||
|
Depending on your deploy case there are different ways of configuring this service. Full documentation of all configuration possibilities is available [here](./configuring-unleash.md)
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Docker
|
||
|
|
||
|
With docker, we configure the mail service via environment variables.
|
||
|
|
||
|
You'll want to at least include EMAIL_HOST, EMAIL_USER, EMAIL_PASSWORD and EMAIL_SENDER
|
||
|
|
||
|
Environment variables:
|
||
|
* EMAIL_HOST - Your SMTP server address
|
||
|
* EMAIL_PORT - Your SMTP server port - defaults to 567
|
||
|
* EMAIL_SECURE - whether to use SMTPS - set to `false` or `true` - defaults to false,
|
||
|
* EMAIL_USER - the username to authenticate against your SMTP server
|
||
|
* EMAIL_PASSWORD - the password for your SMTP user
|
||
|
* EMAIL_SENDER - which address should reset-password mails and welcome mails be sent from - defaults to `noreply@unleash-hosted.com` which is probably not what you want.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Node
|
||
|
|
||
|
With node, we can configure this when calling Unleash's start method.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```js
|
||
|
const unleash = require('unleash-server');
|
||
|
|
||
|
unleash.start({
|
||
|
email: {
|
||
|
host: 'myhost',
|
||
|
smtpuser: 'username',
|
||
|
smtppass: 'password',
|
||
|
sender: 'noreply@mycompany.com'
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
});
|
||
|
```
