Email is being pushed to laravel Queue but doesn't get sent - laravel

Question

I am trying to implement a queue to send email in laravel. My .env file
MAIL_DRIVER = smtp
MAIL_HOST = smtp.gmail.com
MAIL_PORT = 587
MAIL_FROM_ADDRESS = from#gmail.com
MAIL_USERNAME = from
MAIL_PASSWORD = ********
MAIL_ENCRYPTION = tls
QUEUE_CONNECTION=database
My config/queue.php
'connections' => [
'database' => [
'driver' => 'database',
'table' => 'jobs',
'queue' => 'default',
'retry_after' => 90,
'after_commit' => false,
],
]
config/mail.php
'mailers' => [
'smtp' => [
'transport' => 'smtp',
'host' => env('MAIL_HOST', 'smtp.mailgun.org'),
'port' => env('MAIL_PORT', 587),
'encryption' => env('MAIL_ENCRYPTION', 'tls'),
'username' => env('MAIL_USERNAME'),
'password' => env('MAIL_PASSWORD'),
'timeout' => null,
'local_domain' => env('MAIL_EHLO_DOMAIN'),
],
]
My Job file
<?php
namespace App\Jobs;
use Illuminate\Bus\Queueable;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Queue\ShouldQueue;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Bus\Dispatchable;
use Illuminate\Queue\InteractsWithQueue;
use Illuminate\Queue\SerializesModels;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Mail;
class SendSampleMail implements ShouldQueue
{
use Dispatchable;
use InteractsWithQueue;
use Queueable;
use SerializesModels;
/**
* Create a new job instance.
*
* #return void
*/
public function __construct()
{
//
}
/**
* Execute the job.
*
* #return void
*/
public function handle()
{
Mail::send(['text' => 'mail'], ['name' => 'TestUser'], function ($message) {
$message->to('to#mailinator.com', 'testUserName')->subject('Test Laravel email');
$message->from('from#gmail.com', 'Test Mail');
});
}
}
In the controller, I am calling it like
$job = new SendSampleMail();
$this->dispatch($job);
The mail.blade.php
<p>Sending Mail from Laravel.</p>
When I run
php artisan queue:work
The jobs are queued but email fails to be sent.
I need to fix that issue. Any help would be appreciated.　Thanks in advance.

As per the laravel document, create the jobs table in the database.
Run the below two command for the creating the table
php artisan queue:table
php artisan migrate
