Sending Email

Configuring From Address

First we are going to look at how to configure the "sender" or the from email address. All you need to do is call the from method and pass in the sender's email address.

public void index(Mail mail) {
    mail.from("example@email.com").text("Hello World!").send();
}

Subject

To add a subject to your email simply call the subject method and pass in the subject.

public void index(Mail mail) {
    mail.from("example@email.com")
        .text("Hello World!")
        .subject("Subject Here")
        .send();
}

Plain Text Email

To send a plain text email you can pass your email body into the text method.

public void index(Mail mail) {
    mail.from("example@email.com")
        .text("Hello World!")
        .subject("Subject Here")
        .send();
}

HTML Emails

You are also able to use Mustache templates to send as a HTML email. Simply pass the template into the template function.

public void index(Mail mail) {
    mail.from("example@email.com")
        .template("email.mustache", new HashMap<String, Object>())
        .subject("Subject Here")
        .send();
}
