# Mail Actions
This add-on provides SMTP services so your rules and scripts can send e-mails.
The `to` paremeter can contain a semicolon-separated list of email addresses.
## Actions
- `sendMail(String to, String subject, String message)`: Sends an email via SMTP.
- `sendMail(String to, String subject, String message, String attachmentUrl)`: Sends an email with attachment via SMTP.
- `sendMail(String to, String subject, String message, List<String> attachmentUrlList)`: Sends an email with one or more attachments via SMTP.
## Configuration
This action service can be configured via the `services/mail.cfg` file.
| Property | Default | Required | Description |
|---------------|----------------------------|:-----------------------------------------------------------------------:|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| hostname | | Yes | SMTP server hostname, e.g. "smtp.gmail.com" |
| port | 25 (resp. 587 for TLS/SSL) | No | SMTP port to use |
| username | | if the SMTP server at `<hostname>` and `<port>` requires authentication | SMTP user name |
| password | | if the SMTP server at `<hostname>` and `<port>` requires authentication | SMTP password |
| from | | Yes | Email address to use for sending mails |
| tls | false | No | `true` if STARTTLS is enabled (not required) for the connection |
| ssl | false | No | `true` if SSL negotiation should occur on connection. Do not set both `tls` and `ssl` to `true`. If `true` is used here, the port will automatically be set to "465". |
| popbeforesmtp | false | No | set to `true` if POP before SMTP (another authentication mechanism) should be enabled. Username and password are taken from the above configuration |
| charset | platform default | No | Character set used to encode the message body |
## Examples
```javascript
import java.util.List
...
val List<String> attachmentUrlList = newArrayList(
"http://some.web/site/snap.jpg&param=value",
"http://192.168.1.100/data.txt",
"file:///tmp/201601011031.jpg")
