Send via smart host:

$ export SENDMAIL_SMART_HOST=mail.server.com
$ export SENDMAIL_SMART_LOGIN=user           # Optional
$ export SENDMAIL_SMART_PASSWORD=secret      # Optional
$ cat mail.msg | sendmail [email protected]

Use as SMTP service:

$ sendmail -smtp

$ telnet localhost 25
> HELO localhost
> MAIL FROM: sender@localhost
> RCPT TO: [email protected]
> DATA
...

Use as HTTP service:

$ sendmail -http

$ curl -X POST --data-binary @mail.msg localhost:8080

With authorization token:

$ sendmail -http -httpToken werf2t34cr243

$ curl -X POST -H 'Token: werf2t34cr243' --data-binary @mail.msg localhost:8080

Limit the sender's domain:

$ sendmail -http -smtp -senderDomain example1.com -senderDomain example2.com

Use as package

package main

import (
    "github.com/n0madic/sendmail"
    log "github.com/sirupsen/logrus"
)

func main() {
    envelope, err := sendmail.NewEnvelope(&sendmail.Config{
        Sender:     "sender@localhost",
        Recipients: []string{"[email protected]"},
        Subject:    "Test Subject",
        Body:       []byte("TEST"),
    })
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatal(err)
    }

    errs := envelope.Send()
    for result := range errs {
        switch {
        case result.Level > sendmail.WarnLevel:
            log.Info(result.Message)
        case result.Level == sendmail.WarnLevel:
            log.Warn(result.Error)
        case result.Level < sendmail.WarnLevel:
            log.Fatal(result.Error)
        }
    }

}
