Arduino E-Mail Client Library to send, read and get incoming email notification for ESP32, ESP8266 and SAMD21 devices. The library also supported other Arduino devices using Clients interfaces e.g. WiFiClient, EthernetClient, and GSMClient.

This library allows sending and reading Email with various attachments supported and provides more reliable and flexibilities of usages.

The library was tested and works well with ESP32s, ESP8266s, SAMD21s based modules.

This library has built-in WiFi client and aim to be full functionality Email client that can send, read and get Email notification without other indirect Email proxy services needed.

External Arduino Client can be used which this allows other devices (with minimum 80k flash space) to work with this library.

Gmail SMTP and IMAP required App Passwords to sign in

From May 30, 2022, Google no longer supports the use of third-party apps or devices which ask you to sign in to your GoogleAccount using only your username and password.

This means the Gmail account credentials i.e. account Email and account password can't be used to sign in with Google SMTP and IMAP servers. This prevents the third party apps hack to Gmail user account.

To use Gmail with this library, you need to use App Passwords instead.

For setting up the App Passwords, please read here.

After you created App Password, you can use Gmail Email address and App Password created to sign in as the following.

session.login.email = "<your email>";
session.login.password = "<your app password>";

Prerequisites

PlatformIO IDE Compile Options

For Arduino Nano RP2040 Connect board, using PlatformIO IDE, to prevent the compile error due to wrong headers compilation, please set the lib_ldf_mode in platformio.ini as this.

lib_ldf_mode = chain+

Third party SD library must be removed

In Arduino IDE, all third party SD libraries installed in libraries folder must be reboved.

The Core SD library was used instead of third party SD libraries.

SdFat conflicts in ESP8266 and must be removed

The SdFat is already implemented as wrapper class in ESP8266 core library.

For Arduino IDE, the SdFat library should be removed from libraries folder when you compile this library for ESP8266 because of conclicts with core library SDFS.h.

ESP32 and ESP8266 SDKs

For Espressif's ESP32 and ESP8266 based boards, this library requires Arduino's ESP32 or ESP8266 Core SDK to be installed.

The latest Core SDK is recommended. For ESP8266, the Core SDK version 3.x.x or later is recommended.

The ESP8266 Core SDK version 2.5.x and earlier are not supported.

For ESP32, the Core SDK version 2.0.4 or later is recommended.

The ESP32 Core SDK version 1.0.4 and earlier are not supported.

SAMD21 custom build firmware

For Atmel's SAMD21 based boards, custom build WiFiNINA firmware should be installed instead of official Arduino WiFiNINA firmware.

This requirement is optional and has more advantages over the standard Arduino WiFiNINA firmware.

Install Custom Build WiFiNINA Firmware

To install custom build WiFiNINA firmware, please follow the following instructions.

1. Install flash tool, esptool.py from here. To instal esptool python script, you will need either Python 2.7 or Python 3.4 or newer installed on your system.

2. Download nina-fw.bin in firmwares/samd21 and SerialNINAPassthrough.ino.

3. Compile and upload SerialNINAPassthrough.ino to the device.

4. Open the terminal program (Linux and macOS) or command prompt (Windows), and type this command.

esptool.py --port <com-port> --baud 115200 --before default_reset --after hard_reset write_flash 0x0 <path/to/file>/nina-fw.bin

From command above, replace <com-port> with your comport e.g. COM5 (Windows) or /dev/ttyUSB0 (Linux and macOS) and also replace <path/to/file> with your path to the nina-fw.bin that has been extracted.

The flash (upload) result shows in the command prompt window will look similar to below image.

If the custom build WiFiNINA firmware was installed, the debug message will show the library version with WiFiNINA firmware version which followed by build number (+21120).

> C: ESP Mail Client v2.x.x, Fw v1.4.8+21120

Library Instalation

Using Library Manager

At Arduino IDE, go to menu Sketch -> Include Library -> Manage Libraries...

In Library Manager Window, search "ESP Mail Client" in the search form then select "ESP Mail Client".

Click "Install" button.

For PlatformIO IDE.

Go to PIO Home -> Libraries -> Registry then search ESP Mail Client.

If you ever installed this library in Global storage in PlatformIO version prior to v2.0.0 and you have updated the PlatformIO to v2.0.0 and later, the global library installation was not available, the sources files of old library version still be able to search by the library dependency finder (LDF), you needed to remove the library from folder C:\Users\<UserName>\.platformio\lib to prevent unexpected behavior when compile and run.

Manual installation

Click on Code dropdown at the top of repository, select Download ZIP and save file on your computer.

From Arduino IDE, goto menu Sketch -> Include Library -> Add .ZIP Library... and choose ESP-Mail-Client-master.zip that previously downloaded.

Rename ESP-Mail-Client-master folder to ESP_Mail_Client.

Go to menu Files -> Examples -> ESP Mail Client and choose one from examples

Memory Options for ESP8266

This section is optional for memory settings in IDE.

When you update the ESP8266 Arduino Core SDK to v3.0.0, the memory can be configurable from IDE.

You can choose the Heap memory between internal and external memory chip from IDE e.g. Arduino IDE and PlatformIO on VSCode or Atom IDE.

Arduino IDE

For ESP8266 devices that don't have external SRAM/PSRAM chip installed, choose the MMU option 3, 16KB cache + 48KB IRAM and 2nd Heap (shared).

For ESP8266 devices that have external 23LC1024 SRAM chip installed, choose the MMU option 5, 128K External 23LC1024.

For ESP8266 devices that have external ESP-PSRAM64 chip installed, choose the MMU option 6, 1M External 64 MBit PSRAM.

PlatformIO IDE

The MMU options can be selected from build_flags in your project's platformio.ini file

For ESP8266 devices that don't not have external SRAM/PSRAM chip installed, add build flag as below.

[env:d1_mini]
platform = espressif8266
build_flags = -D PIO_FRAMEWORK_ARDUINO_MMU_CACHE16_IRAM48_SECHEAP_SHARED
board = d1_mini
framework = arduino
monitor_speed = 115200

For ESP8266 devices that have external 23LC1024 SRAM chip installed, add build flag as below.

[env:d1_mini]
platform = espressif8266
;128K External 23LC1024
build_flags = -D PIO_FRAMEWORK_ARDUINO_MMU_EXTERNAL_128K
board = d1_mini
framework = arduino
monitor_speed = 115200

For ESP8266 devices that have external ESP-PSRAM64 chip installed, add build flag as below.

[env:d1_mini]
platform = espressif8266
;1M External 64 MBit PSRAM
build_flags = -D PIO_FRAMEWORK_ARDUINO_MMU_EXTERNAL_1024K
board = d1_mini
framework = arduino
monitor_speed = 115200

ESP8266 and SRAM/PSRAM Chip connection

Most ESP8266 modules don't have the built-in SRAM/PSRAM on board. External memory chip connection can be done via SPI port as below.

23LC1024/ESP-PSRAM64                ESP8266

CS (Pin 1)                          GPIO15
SCK (Pin 6)                         GPIO14
MOSI (Pin 5)                        GPIO13
MISO (Pin 2)                        GPIO12
/HOLD (Pin 7 on 23LC1024 only)      3V3
Vcc (Pin 8)                         3V3
Vcc (Pin 4)                         GND

Once the external Heap memory was selected in IDE, to allow the library to use the external memory, you can set it in ESP_Mail_FS.h by define this macro.

#define ESP_MAIL_USE_PSRAM

This macro was defined by default when you installed or update the library.

Memory Options for ESP32

This section is optional for memory settings in IDE.

In ESP32 module that has PSRAM installed, you can enable it and set the library to use this external memory instead.

Arduino IDE

To enable PSRAM in ESP32 module.

PlatformIO IDE

In PlatformIO on VSCode or Atom IDE, add the following build_flags in your project's platformio.ini file.

build_flags = -DBOARD_HAS_PSRAM -mfix-esp32-psram-cache-issue

As in ESP8266, once the external Heap memory was enabled in IDE, to allow the library to use the external memory, you can set it in ESP_Mail_FS.h by define this macro.

#define ESP_MAIL_USE_PSRAM

Exclude unused classes to save memory

Now you can compile the library only for seclected classes.

In ESP_Mail_FS.h, the IMAP and SMTP class can be enabled with the macros.

#define ENABLE_IMAP

#define ENABLE_SMTP

In ESP8266 and ESP32, when no attachments require for uploading and downloading, the storage file systems libraries e.g. SD or SD_MMC (ESP32), SPIFFS and LittleFS will no longer use and can be excluded when compiling the code to reduce program flash size, by comment the following macros to exclude them.

#define ESP_MAIL_DEFAULT_SD_FS SD

#define ESP_Mail_DEFAULT_FLASH_FS SPIFFS

Usage

See examples folder for all usage examples.

Get Incoming Message Notification and Reading

See Mailbox_Changes_Notification.ino for the example.

Sending Custom IMAP commands

Can't find what you want from exising IMAP functions, sending custom command was supported.

Please read the RFC 3501 and RFC 9051 documents for the details of IMAP protocol commands.

See Custom_Command.ino for the example.

Use external Arduino Clients interfaces

The Arduino Clients for network interfaces (WiFiClient, EthernetClient and GSMClient) which support non-secure network connection can be used as external client.

These network interface Clients are refered to as "bsic Clients" which only handle the network communication.

The Clients that have ability to handle SSL/TLS encryption/decryption of data from basic Client or to basic Client are refered to as "SSL Clients".

The Arduino devices that don't have on-board WiFi, the external Client library is needed and no additional setup required.

For boards that have WiFi e.g. ESP32, ESP8266 and SAMD21 with built-in U-blox NINA-W102 module, the built-in client will be used by default.

To use custom (external) Client for such WiFi capable devices, the following macro should be defined in ESP_Mail_FS.h.

#define ENABLE_CUSTOM_CLIENT

See Custom Client Examples for complete Client example.

The following example showed how to use GSMClient and SSLClient to connect to SMTP server via port 587 which required connection upgrade.

GSMClient client; // basic non-secure client

/** The parameters passed to the SSLClient constructor
 * TAs is Trust anchors used in the verification of the SSL server certificate. 
 * Check out https://github.com/mobizt/SSLClient/blob/master/TrustAnchors.md for more info.
 * TAs_NUM is the number of objects in the trust_anchors array.
 * rand_pin is an analog pin to pull random bytes from, used in seeding the RNG.
 */
// https://github.com/mobizt/SSLClient
SSLClient ssl_client(client, TAs, (size_t)TAs_NUM, rand_pin); 

SMTPSession smtp(&ssl_client, esp_mail_external_client_type_basic); 
// port 587 required non-secure connection during greeting and 
// upgrade to TLS later with STARTTLS command. 

void connectionUpgradeRequestCallback()
{

    //To make sure that upgradable SSLClient https://github.com/mobizt/SSLClient was installed instead of
    // the original version
#if defined(SSLCLIENT_CONNECTION_UPGRADABLE)

    // Upgrade the connection
    // The host and port parameters will be ignored for this case and can be any
    ssl_client.connectSSL("smtp.gmail.com" /* host */, 587 /* port */);
    
#endif
}

void connectionRequestCallback(const char *host, int port)
{
    client.connect(host, port)
}

// Define the callback function to handle server status acknowledgement
void networkStatusRequestCallback()
{
    // Set the network status
    bool networkConnected;

    // networkConnected = modem.isNetworkConnected();

    smtp.setNetworkStatus(networkConnected);
}

void serup()
{

    session.server.host_name = "smtp.gmail.com"; //for gmail.com
    session.server.port = 587; // requires connection upgrade via STARTTLS
    session.login.email = "your Email address"; //set to empty for no SMTP Authentication
    session.login.password = "your Email password"; //set to empty for no SMTP Authentication
    session.login.user_domain = "client domain or ip e.g. mydomain.com";

    /**
     * Other setup codes
     * 
     */

    // Set the callback function for server connection.
    smtp.connectionRequestCallback(connectionRequestCallback);
    
    // Set the callback function for connection upgrade
    smtp.connectionUpgradeRequestCallback(connectionUpgradeRequestCallback);

    smtp.networkStatusRequestCallback(networkStatusRequestCallback);

}

The below example will use Arduino MKR 1000 and WiFi101 library.

#include <WiFi101.h>

// Define the global used Client object
WiFiSSLClient ssl_client; // secured client

// Define the global used smtp object
// SSL required for port 465
SMTPSession smtp(&ssl_client, esp_mail_external_client_type_ssl); 
// or assign the Client later with smtp.setClient(&ssl_client, esp_mail_external_client_type_ssl);

// Since we use WiFiSSLClient that supported SSL and no basic non-secure client can be pass to its constructor,
// only SMTP port 465 works in the following code.

// Define the global used session config data which used to store the TCP session configuration
ESP_Mail_Session session;

void networkConnection()
{
    // Reset the network connection
    WiFi.disconnect();

    WiFi.begin(WIFI_SSID, WIFI_PASSWORD);
    Serial.print("Connecting to Wi-Fi");
    unsigned long ms = millis();
    while (WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED)
    {
        Serial.print(".");

        if (millis() - ms >= 5000)
        {
            Serial.println(" failed!");
            return;
        }
    }
    Serial.println();
    Serial.print("Connected with IP: ");
    Serial.println(WiFi.localIP());
    Serial.println();
}

// Define the callback function to handle server status acknowledgement
void networkStatusRequestCallback()
{
    // Set the network status
    smtp.setNetworkStatus(WiFi.status() == WL_CONNECTED);
}

// Define the callback function to handle server connection
void connectionRequestCallback(const char *host, int port)
{
    // You may need to set the system timestamp in case of custom client
    // time is used to set the date header while sending email.
    smtp.setSystemTime(WiFi.getTime());

    Serial.print("> U: Connecting to server via custom Client... ");
    if (!client.connect(host, port))
    {
        Serial.println("failed.");
        return;
    }
    Serial.println("success.");
}

void setup()
{

  Serial.begin(115200);

  networkConnection();

  // Set the session config
  session.server.host_name = "smtp.gmail.com"; //for gmail.com
  session.server.port = 465; // SSL 
  session.login.email = "your Email address"; //set to empty for no SMTP Authentication
  session.login.password = "your Email password"; //set to empty for no SMTP Authentication
  session.login.user_domain = "client domain or ip e.g. mydomain.com";


  // Define the SMTP_Message class variable to handle to message being transport
  SMTP_Message message;

  // Set the message headers
  message.sender.name = "My Mail";
  message.sender.email = "sender or your Email address";
  message.subject = "Test sending Email";
  message.addRecipient("name1", "email1");
  message.addRecipient("name2", "email2");

  message.addCc("email3");
  message.addBcc("email4");

  // Set the message content
  message.text.content = "This is simple plain text message";
  
  // Set the callback functions to hadle the required tasks.
  smtp.connectionRequestCallback(connectionRequestCallback);

  smtp.networkConnectionRequestCallback(networkConnection);

  smtp.networkStatusRequestCallback(networkStatusRequestCallback);


  // Connect to the server with the defined session and options
  imap.connect(&session, &config);


  // Start sending Email and close the session
  if (!MailClient.sendMail(&smtp, &message))
    Serial.println("Error sending Email, " + smtp.errorReason());


}

The below example will use ESP32 and GSMClient library.

GSMClient client; // basic non-secure client

SMTPSession smtp(&client, esp_mail_external_client_type_basic); 
// We can assign basic Client directly in ESP8266 and ESP32 as library will handle 
// the connection upgrade (if needed in case of SMTP port 587) using Core SDK SSL engine.


void connectionRequestCallback(const char *host, int port)
{
    client.connect(host, port)
}

// Define the callback function to handle server status acknowledgement
void networkStatusRequestCallback()
{
    // Set the network status
