Nodemailer only working with one email address












1















First time trying to get nodemailer to work, and it does work, but only if the sending email address is my email address... I currently have this code:



app.post('/', function (req, res) {
const transporter = nodemailer.createTransport({
service: 'Hotmail',
auth: {
user: 'myemail@hotmail.co.uk',
pass: 'XXXX'
}
});
const mailOptions = {
from: req.body.address, // sender address
to: 'myemail@hotmail.co.uk', // list of receivers
subject: req.body.address,
html: req.body.message // html body
};

transporter.sendMail(mailOptions, (error, info) => {
if (error) {
return console.log(error);
}
console.log(req.body);
console.log('Message %s sent: %s', info.messageId, info.response);
res.render('index');
});


If i put in a random email address in the form and send it, I get an Error: Message Failed. Not sure if i'm missing something really obvious with this but at the moment the sender address has to match the receiver (or it could be my auth.user email) for it to work.



Has anyone had trouble with this before / can shine some light on this? Thanks
