The complete and secure Mail Client for ESP32 and ESP8266 devices for sending and reading the Email through the SMTP and IMAP servers.
With this library, the devices can both send and read the Email with many types of attachments supported and provides more reliable and flexibilities of usages.
The library was tested and work well with ESP32s and ESP8266s based modules.
This library was developed to replace the deprecated ESP32 Mail Client library with more options and features, better reliability and also conforms to the RFC standards.

- Support Espressif ESP32 and ESP8266 MCUs based devices.
- Support TCP session reusage.
- Support PLAIN, LOGIN and XOAUTH2 authentication mechanisms.
- Secured connection with SSL and TLS.
- Support mailbox selection for Email reading and searching.
- Support the content encodings e.g. quoted-printable and base64.
- Support the content decodings e.g. base64, UTF-8, UTF-7, quoted-printable, ISO-8859-1 (latin1) and ISO-8859-11 (Thai).
- Support many types of embedded contents e.g. inline images, attachments, parallel media attachments and RFC822 message.
- Support full debuging.
- Support SPIFFS and SD card for file storages.
- Support Ethernet (ESP32).
- Customizable operating configurations (see the examples for the usages)
This following devices were tested.
- Sparkfun ESP32 Thing
- NodeMCU-32
- WEMOS LOLIN32
- TTGO T8 V1.8
- M5Stack ESP32
- NodeMCU ESP8266
- Wemos D1 Mini (ESP8266)
The library requires Arduino's ESP32 or ESP8266 Core SDK to be installed based on the platform.
The latest Core SDK is recommended. For ESP8266, the Core SDK version 2.6.3 or later is recommended.
The ESP8266 Core SDK version 2.5.x and earlier are not supported.
