Can't send email with nestjs and nodemailer - nestjs

Question

I try to send email from server with nodemailer and nestjs.
Here is module configuration
import { Module } from "#nestjs/common";
import { MailService } from "./services/mail/mail.service";
import { MailController } from "./controllers/mail/mail.controller";
import { MailerModule } from "#nestjs-modules/mailer";
#Module({
controllers: [MailController],
providers: [MailService],
imports: [
MailerModule.forRoot({
transport: {
host: process.env.EMAIL_HOST,
port: process.env.EMAIL_PORT,
secure: true,
auth: {
user: process.env.EMAIL_ID,
pass: process.env.EMAIL_PASS
}
}
})
]
})
export class MailModule {
}
and the method
#import { MailerService } from "#nestjs-modules/mailer";
constructor(private mailer: MailerService) {
}
async sendConfirmationLetter(to: string): Promise<void> {
try {
await this.mailer.sendMail({
to: 'to',
from: 'from',
subject: 'subject',
text: 'some text'
});
} catch (e) {
console.log(e);
}
}
but I have an exception
Error: connect ECONNREFUSED 127.0.0.1:465
at TCPConnectWrap.afterConnect [as oncomplete] (node:net:1139:16) {
errno: -4078,
code: 'ESOCKET',
syscall: 'connect',
address: '127.0.0.1',
port: 465,
command: 'CONN'
}
What am I doing wrong? All information is taken from the documentation https://nest-modules.github.io/mailer/docs/mailer.html
Please, help!
If some information is not enough, I can provide it

Answer 1

MailerModule.forRoot({
transport: {
host: process.env.EMAIL_HOST, // change to your email smtp server like www.example.com
port: process.env.EMAIL_PORT, // change to configured tls port for smtp server
secure: true,
auth: {
user: process.env.EMAIL_ID,
pass: process.env.EMAIL_PASS
}
}
})
you are using your host and port for smtp server, if u had setup the smtp on the same instance it show be fine, but I don think it is same port and host should be domain also.
If u plan to use gmail smtp then the setting should be
MailerModule.forRoot({
transport: {
host: "smtp.gmail.com",
port: "465",
secure: true,
auth: {
user: "your_gmail_email",
pass: "your_gmail_app_password"
}
}
})
