3. Now Create Function To Send Email

/app/code/VendorName/ModuleName/Controller/Index/SendCustomMail.php
Magento 2 Mail Function Example:
<?php namespace VendorName\ModuleName\Controller;
use Magento\Framework\App\RequestInterface;
class SendCustomMail extends \Magento\Framework\App\Action\Action
{
/**
* @var \Magento\Framework\App\Request\Http
*/
protected $_request;
/**
* @var \Magento\Framework\Mail\Template\TransportBuilder
*/
protected $_transportBuilder;
/**
* @var \Magento\Store\Model\StoreManagerInterface
*/
protected $_storeManager;
public function __construct(
\Magento\Framework\App\Action\Context $context
, \Magento\Framework\App\Request\Http $request
, \Magento\Framework\Mail\Template\TransportBuilder $transportBuilder
, \Magento\Store\Model\StoreManagerInterface $storeManager
)
{
$this-?>_request = $request;
$this->_transportBuilder = $transportBuilder;
$this->_storeManager = $storeManager;
parent::__constr
parent::__construct($context);
}
public function execute()
{
$store = $this->_storeManager->getStore()->getId();
$transport = $this->_transportBuilder->setTemplateIdentifier('modulename_mytemplate')
->setTemplateOptions(['area' => 'frontend', 'store' => $store])
->setTemplateVars(
[
'store' => $this->_storeManager->getStore(),
]
)
->setFrom('general')
// you can config general email address in Store -> Configuration -> General -> Store Email Addresses
->addTo('john@example.com', 'John Dee')
->getTransport();
$transport->sendMessage();
return $this;
}
}

So you set your preferences in email template such as – set email template identifier, customer email, store, set from etc.
