No Valid Recipients when using email verification

So I made my user model implement the MustVerifyEmail contract and I keep getting the error below

Expected response code 354 but got code "554", with message "554 5.5.1 Error: no valid recipients

When I use mail trap, everything seems to work fine but when I switch to my email hosting service (Namecheap's privateemail) I keep getting this error.

I've tried placing the snippet below to use my custom queuable notification but still.

 public function sendEmailVerificationNotification()
    {
        $this->notify(new SendEmailVerificationNotification);
    }

Anybody had this issue before?

have you an email column on your users table?

@snapey Yes, I do. When I dump or log the user email or the notifiable instance, the email is there. Besides, I'm using the default users table that comes with the framework, I just added extra columns for my use case.
