[![Go Report Card](https://goreportcard.com/badge/github.com/wneessen/go-mail)](https://goreportcard.com/report/github.com/wneessen/go-mail) [![Build Status](https://api.cirrus-ci.com/github/wneessen/go-mail.svg)](https://cirrus-ci.com/github/wneessen/go-mail) <a href="https://ko-fi.com/D1D24V9IX"><img src="https://uploads-ssl.webflow.com/5c14e387dab576fe667689cf/5cbed8a4ae2b88347c06c923_BuyMeACoffee_blue.png" height="20" alt="buy ma a coffee"></a>

The main idea of this library was to provide a simple interface to sending mails for
my [JS-Mailer](https://github.com/wneessen/js-mailer) project. It quickly evolved into a 
full-fledged mail library.

**This library is "WIP" an should not be considered "production ready", yet.**

go-mail follows idiomatic Go style and best practice. It's only dependency is the Go Standard Library.
It combines a lot of functionality from the standard library to give easy and convenient access to
mail and SMTP related tasks.
