SMTP Driver

Using SMTP requires the following:

  1. SMTP Host – e.g., your mail server’s hostname or IP
  2. SMTP Port – 587 (TLS) or 465 (SSL), depending on provider
  3. SMTP Encryption – TLS or SSL
  4. SMTP Username
  5. SMTP Password

Notes:

• To test email configuration, create a new user account and see if a confirmation or welcome email is successfully generated. If misconfigured, you may get a 500 error (though the user might still be created in your database).
• All drivers are fine if configured properly, but Mailgun via API often yields the fastest send times.
• Some hosting providers, DigitalOcean included, might block the SMTP outbound ports, like 25, 465 or 587, so you might need to reach out to your hosting provider and have them unblocked.
