SMTP Relay

Send emails through Samva using standard SMTP protocol. Works with any platform that supports SMTP — Auth0, Supabase, WordPress, and more.

SMTP Relay

Samva provides an SMTP relay at smtp.samva.app so you can send transactional emails from any platform that supports SMTP. Messages sent via SMTP go through the same delivery pipeline as API-sent emails — you get full tracking, analytics, and deliverability features.

Quick Start

Code Examples

Node.js (Nodemailer)

import nodemailer from "nodemailer";

const transporter = nodemailer.createTransport({
  host: "smtp.samva.app",
  port: 587,
  secure: false, // STARTTLS
  auth: {
    user: "samva",
    pass: "sk_sm_your_api_key_here",
  },
});

await transporter.sendMail({
  from: "you@yourdomain.com",
  to: "recipient@example.com",
  subject: "Hello from Samva",
  html: "<h1>Hello!</h1><p>Sent via SMTP relay.</p>",
});

Python (smtplib)

import smtplib
from email.mime.text import MIMEText
from email.mime.multipart import MIMEMultipart

msg = MIMEMultipart("alternative")
msg["Subject"] = "Hello from Samva"
msg["From"] = "you@yourdomain.com"
msg["To"] = "recipient@example.com"

html = "<h1>Hello!</h1><p>Sent via SMTP relay.</p>"
msg.attach(MIMEText(html, "html"))

with smtplib.SMTP("smtp.samva.app", 587) as server:
    server.starttls()
    server.login("samva", "sk_sm_your_api_key_here")
    server.send_message(msg)

PHP (PHPMailer)

use PHPMailer\PHPMailer\PHPMailer;

$mail = new PHPMailer(true);
$mail->isSMTP();
$mail->Host       = 'smtp.samva.app';
$mail->SMTPAuth   = true;
$mail->Username   = 'samva';
$mail->Password   = 'sk_sm_your_api_key_here';
$mail->SMTPSecure = PHPMailer::ENCRYPTION_STARTTLS;
$mail->Port       = 587;

$mail->setFrom('you@yourdomain.com');
$mail->addAddress('recipient@example.com');
$mail->Subject = 'Hello from Samva';
$mail->isHTML(true);
$mail->Body = '<h1>Hello!</h1><p>Sent via SMTP relay.</p>';

$mail->send();

Ruby

require 'net/smtp'

message = <<~MSG
  From: you@yourdomain.com
  To: recipient@example.com
  Subject: Hello from Samva
  MIME-Version: 1.0
  Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8

  <h1>Hello!</h1><p>Sent via SMTP relay.</p>
MSG

smtp = Net::SMTP.new('smtp.samva.app', 587)
smtp.enable_starttls
smtp.start('smtp.samva.app', 'samva', 'sk_sm_your_api_key_here', :plain) do |s|
  s.send_message(message, 'you@yourdomain.com', 'recipient@example.com')
end

Go

package main

import (
  "net/smtp"
  "strings"
)

func main() {
  auth := smtp.PlainAuth("", "samva", "sk_sm_your_api_key_here", "smtp.samva.app")

  to := []string{"recipient@example.com"}
  msg := strings.Join([]string{
    "From: you@yourdomain.com",
    "To: recipient@example.com",
    "Subject: Hello from Samva",
    "MIME-Version: 1.0",
    "Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8",
    "",
    "<h1>Hello!</h1><p>Sent via SMTP relay.</p>",
  }, "\r\n")

  smtp.SendMail("smtp.samva.app:587", auth, "you@yourdomain.com", to, []byte(msg))
}

How It Works

  1. Your application connects to smtp.samva.app via SMTP
  2. Samva authenticates using your API key
  3. The message is recorded in your Samva dashboard
  4. Samva delivers the email through your verified domain
  5. Delivery events (sent, delivered, bounced, opened) are tracked just like API sends

Requirements

  • A verified domain in your Samva dashboard
  • A Samva API key
  • The sender (From:) address must be on a verified domain
