Mail facade is in the global namespace. The call should be:
\Mail::to('[email protected]')->send(new ContactUS($data));
or add use Mail;

Mail not finding Mail Class
Ok so I'm trying to send a mail with this controller but when I hit send on the form to call the controller I get a message saying the ContactUs class is not found, even though ContactUs.php is indeed in App\Mail
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Mail\ContactUs;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Mail;
class ContactUSController extends Controller
{
public function contactUSPost(Request $request)
{
$data = request()->validate([
'name' => 'required',
'email' => 'required|email',
'number' => 'required',
'message' => 'required'
]);
Mail::to('[email protected]')->send(new ContactUS($data));
return back()->with('complete', 'Thanks for contacting us!');
}
}
Have I made an obvious mistake here?
Level 2
Tried that but it didn't work. Same error
Level 3
Oh. You capitalized the S in Us.
\Mail::to('[email protected]')->send(new ContactUs($data));
If that doesn't fix it please provide the source of ContactUs.
Level 2
Still no joy. My ide is saying App\Mail\ContactUs and Mail are undefined classes. Here's the contents of ContactUs:
<?php
namespace App\Mail;
use Illuminate\Bus\Queueable;
use Illuminate\Mail\Mailable;
use Illuminate\Queue\SerializesModels;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Queue\ShouldQueue;
class ContactMail extends Mailable
{
use Queueable, SerializesModels;
public $data;
/**
* Create a new message instance.
*
* @return void
*/
public function __construct($data)
{
$this->data = $data;
}
/**
* Build the message.
*
* @return $this
*/
public function build()
{
return $this->markdown('emails.contactForm');
}
}

So your class is named ContactMail, but you're calling it ContactUsin the controller.
Level 3
class ContactMail extends Mailable
{
Your class is defined as ContactMail, not ContactUs. Change it to ContactUs.
Level 2
Oh for... Sorry yeah, blind. Wasted your time really....
Level 3
No worries. We all make mistakes like that. Better to ask for help then bang your head against a wall for hours trying to figure it out.

Hi there! Are you sure this is the same file? This is a ContactMail class, previously you mentioned ContactUs. (just to be sure we are on the same page)
Edit: posted right after the above comments, i see it is now solved.
