Thank you so much.
But I am facing difficulty in attachment sending part, I have tried 3 times but couldn't send only text sent!

Do you have a folder where your image is stored?

Example:

attachment: [{
filename: "robocop.jpg", path: "./img/robocop.jpg"}]
};

I kept image file in same folder where my index.js is present.
So in this case I just wrote:

attachment: [{
filename: "robocop.jpg", path: "robocop.jpg"}]
};

But it is not working:(

@Suchitra try adding an 's' to attachment: attachments: [{

I ran into the same thing with just text showing up and checked the nodemailer documentation on attachements. That little mispelling fix should do the trick.

Also, if you want to learn how to do this with a React frontend and Google OAuth2, check out my nodemailer article as well :)
