This works in lua but takes a lot of memory:

sendmail("from@xxx.yyy","to@xxx.yyy","subject","body","smtp.server.xxx:25")

Cool

Thanks

Looks good! Would I save this as a .lua file then run it as a function? Actually I just need to find some time and to update the lua firmware and learn through trial and error. It's the best way to learn. It looks promising might need to set it up and test at work.

I think a major selling point of lua is you don't need to compile. Building the environment to make hello world happen is possibly one of the hardest parts.

Could the email body be a file attachment from the ESP8266's flash? Could be useful if you'd want to transmit a .log file.
