  port: 465,
  secure: true,
  auth: {
    user: 'testmail@zoho.com',
    pass: '123456'
  }
});

const data = await ejs.renderFile(__dirname + "/test.ejs", { name: 'Stranger' });

const mainOptions = {
  from: '"Tester" testmail@zoho.com',
  to: 'totest@zoho.com',
  subject: 'Hello, world!',
  html: data
};

transporter.sendMail(mainOptions, (err, info) => {
  if (err) {
    console.log(err);
  } else {
    console.log('Message sent: ' + info.response);
  }
});
