I have a Laravel 9.x site that I'm hosting on IONOS (shared-hosting).
In my site, I utilize mail a lot. So I'm sending mails to my customer frequently. While developing the system - I was using MailTrap.io - but for deployment, I need all the mails to go to my IONOS Mail Account i.e info@domain.com - for that, I need to use IONOS' Mail Configuration.
Following is my mail config (censoring out private info):
MAIL_MAILER=smtp
MAIL_HOST=smtp.ionos.com
MAIL_PORT=587
MAIL_USERNAME=####@#######.com
MAIL_PASSWORD=################
MAIL_ENCRYPTION=tls
MAIL_FROM_NAME="${APP_NAME}"
MAIL_FROM_ADDRESS=#####@#######.com
This is the error I'm getting:
This is the piece of manual documentation I got from IONOS' Dashboard:
How do I fix this? What is causing this issue? Like I mentioned before, all of it was working fine with MailTrap.io - so I'm really curious what am I doing wrong.
Thank you :)
