A few adapter edge cases can still generate invalid payloads or throw unexpectedly (e.g., empty from.email passing validation and content: "" falling through to readFileSync).

Pull request overview
This PR updates the Nodemailer transport integration to support Nodemailer 10 (new bundled TypeScript type layout) while preserving compatibility with Nodemailer 9 + @types/nodemailer, and updates CI/tooling to meet Nodemailer 10’s Node.js 20+ requirement.
Changes:
- Bump dev dependency to
nodemailer@^10.0.0, widenpeerDependencies.nodemailerto^9.0.1 || ^10.0.0, and keep@types/nodemaileras an optional peer for Nodemailer 9 users. - Refactor adapter type imports and input-shape handling (recipients flattening/groups, header value normalization, attachment/content handling) to align with Nodemailer 10’s stricter/bundled types.
- Update CI and local tooling to Node.js
20.20.2, add/adjust tests, and update README guidance for Nodemailer 9/10 + TypeScript usage.

In `@src/adapters/content.ts`:
- Line 13: Update adaptContent to handle URL-backed content.path values
according to Nodemailer’s supported inputs, fetching supported URLs before
constructing the attachment, or explicitly rejecting non-local URL values with a
clear validation error; preserve existing local file-path and data-URI handling,
and keep the change scoped to the path-processing branch.
In `@src/adapters/headers.ts`:
- Line 31: Update adaptHeaderValue to reject array-valued header inputs instead
of returning only value[0], preserving scalar header handling and raising the
established validation error. Add a test covering rejection of repeated header
values such as ["one", "two"].
In `@src/adapters/recipients.ts`:
- Line 35: Update adaptFirstRecipient to validate that the normalized
NodemailerAddress has a non-empty address and return undefined when it is
missing, while keeping NodemailerAddress.address optional. Add coverage for a
from value containing only name, ensuring adaptation does not bypass
FROM_REQUIRED.
In `@src/types/transport.ts`:
- Around line 32-35: Update NodemailerContentObject and adaptContent to require
at least one usable source: supported content or a path typed as string | Url.
Validate the selected branch before calling readFileSync, preventing empty
objects or unsupported content values from reaching the path fallback.

Thanks for the input, looks good, suggesting one small improvement to src/adapters/attachement.ts

As we are touching adapter here we probably should do this instead:
const content = adaptContent(nodemailerAttachment.content);
if (!content) {
throw new Error(CONTENT_REQUIRED);
}There was a problem hiding this comment.
Done in 513692e: the adapted content is now checked and CONTENT_REQUIRED is thrown when it is empty, e.g. an empty string or a stream with nothing to read. I kept the initial guard so adaptContent still receives a defined value. Also added a test covering both cases.
|
@VladimirTaytor also another thing to check: I can also upgrade the CI to 24 (I upgraded from 18 to 20 as it's the new requirement of nodemailer 10), or if you prefer, do it on another pr. and another one: CodeQL v3 will also be deprecated (https://github.blog/changelog/2025-10-28-upcoming-deprecation-of-codeql-action-v3/) You can see it on your github action log : Just reply to this comment if you want me to do it. |

Motivation
Nodemailer 10 was released in September 2026. Bumping the dependency is not enough this time:
nodemaileris now written in TypeScript and ships its own type definitions, which take precedence over@types/nodemailerand use a different layout than the DefinitelyTyped ones. The transport compiles against the bundled types only after a few adjustments, even though nothing changes at runtime (the whole test suite passes on 10.0.9 without touching the code).Nodemailer 10 also requires Node.js 20 or newer, which the CI currently does not meet.
Changes
.tool-versions(nodemailer 10 declaresengines.node >= 20, soyarn install --frozen-lockfilewould fail on Node 18).nodemailerdev dependency bumped to^10.0.0; peer range widened to^9.0.1 || ^10.0.0so users on 9 are not warned.@types/nodemaileris kept as an optional peer for nodemailer 9 users, it is not needed with 10.nodemailer/lib/mailerno longer exposes named exports (Address,Attachment,AttachmentLike,Headers) nor a CommonJSexport =. The code now uses a default import and theMail.*namespace, which is the layout nodemailer 10 explicitly preserved for@types/nodemailercompatibility. The sources type-check against both nodemailer 10 (bundled types) and nodemailer 9 +@types/nodemailer6.name/addressare optional on address objects, arrays can be nested and address groups ({ name, group: [...] }) are expanded;fromaccepts an array like the other address fields (first one is used, as forreply_to).{ key, value }object is accepted, and number/boolean/Date/address/{ prepared, value }values are converted to strings;null/undefinedvalues are skipped.adaptContent, which also accepts a content descriptor object.adaptReplyToRecipient→adaptFirstRecipient(shared byfromandreply_to; not part of the public API).NodemailerAddress,NodemailerRecipients,NodemailerContent) live insrc/types/transport.tsnext toMailtrapMailOptions.@types/nodemaileronly needed with 9.How to test
yarn install --frozen-lockfile && yarn lint && yarn teston Node.js 20+ (nodemailer 10.0.9 installed): lint, tsc and 444 tests pass.nodemailer@^9alongside@types/nodemailer@^6and runtsc -p tsconfig.build.json --noEmit— the sources still type-check (the new adapter tests use nodemailer 10 shapes and are only meant to compile against the dev dependency).yarn buildand check thatdist/types/transport.d.tsanddist/adapters/*.d.tsonly referencenodemailer/lib/mailerthrough the default import.MailtrapTransportwith nodemailer 10 (seeexamples/sending/transport.ts) and confirm the payload is unchanged.Summary by CodeRabbit
