I deployed my app on ubuntu server, but emails can't be sent, I use external smtp connection, from locally it is ok. but from forge server emails are not going out... Is there something to activate?
Is the outgoing port open on the Forge server. You can check this by wget -qO- portquiz.net:<<port>> while the port is the outgoing SMTP port.
Do you use queueable on your emails? Maybe the queue isn't working.
Did you setup the .env correctly of your app on the Forge server? Maybe you have to use SSL/TLS.
What says the Laravel log?
Please post the email part of the .env file, the email class and how you fire it.
MAIL_DRIVER=smtp
MAIL_ENCRYPTION=null
MAIL_HOST=mail.myhost.org
MAIL_PORT=25
MAIL_USERNAME=fjksadier
MAIL_PASSWORD=*************
[email protected]
I use swift mailer to send messages, locally it works with same data without any problems.
Please provide all the requested information above.
Per default, Laravel uses MAIL_FROM_ADDRESS and MAIL_FROM_NAME, not MAIL_ADDRESS. Do you overwrite that somewhere? And have you tried it with port 587?
MAIL_FROM_ADDRESS -> my parameter is ok. because the config comes from a older version, the value was wrong and not from my domain, thank you very much
