I've never tried to use the email function. Which provider are you using? I'll give it a go.

I just played around with this and got a spare Gmail account to work. The steps roughly go like so:

  1. Go to Gmail and click on your account icon in the upper right corner.
  2. Select Manage Account.
  3. Left side, select Security
  4. Center, where it says "Log in to GMail" select App Passwords
  5. Generate an app password of type "other". Call it "magic mirror" or whatever. It will generate a random password for you. This is the password you plug into the config.js file on your mirror. That part of your module configuration should look like this:
sendMail: {
     transport: {
          host: 'smtp.gmail.com',
          port: 465,
          secure: true,
                auth: {
                    user: "[yourGmailAccountName]@gmail.com",
                    pass: "[generatedPasswordGoesHere]"
                    }
     },
          message: {
                    from: "[yourGmailAccount]@gmail.com",
                    to: "[email protected]",
                    subject: "Mirror has given Dobbie a selfie!",
                    text: "New selfie has arrived."
          }
}
