Answer 1

If you are using this example https://github.com/andris9/Nodemailer/blob/master/examples/example_sendmail.js

Then replace this code

var transport = nodemailer.createTransport("Sendmail", "/usr/sbin/sendmail");

With

var transport = nodemailer.createTransport("SMTP", {
    host: "smtp.gmail.com", // hostname
    secureConnection: true, // use SSL
    port: 465, // port for secure SMTP
    auth: {
        user: "foo@rcorp.co.in",
        pass: "fooP@ssword"
    } });
