  • How to Send Emails in Go

    Okay, we’ve taken care of the recipients. Now, what if we want to include an attachment with our message? Golang uses the mime/multipart method by default for this purpose, but it’s far from straightforward. That’s why developers prefer 3rd-party libraries that simplify the process without adding too much boilerplate. Among them, Jordan Wright’s “email” library is the most popular. It can also be used to add cc or bcc along with other features. We strongly recommend it.
