If you've never sent email with a server, it's super simple! We're going to quickly walk you through how to send server email with node.js using Sendgrid - the world's largest Email IaaS provider.
Sending email from a server might feel daunting at first, but it's really one of the easier things that you can do as a web developer.
In this example, we'll wire Sendgrid into our Node.js application and send an email. The overall process will take less than 5 minutes, but Sendgrid will take up to a day to provision your account for usage in the application you're developing.
I've also tried Mandrill for email, but have to say that the results simply weren't as good as using Sendgrid in web development.
