Unable to connect to Zoho email server while using Fluent SMTP plugin - zoho

I set up emails on zohomail platform for my website to handle email deliveries, I built the website on wordpress CMS, I tried configuring Zoho emails with my wordpress using Flunet SMTP plugin but it is not being connected to the server,when I contacted the support they asked for the SMTP logs and I provided them, actually I hosted my website on cyberpanel server and I handle the server.
Actually, the server is connecting to mx3.zoho.in instead of connecting to smtp.zoho.in
How can fix this?
Thanks and team please help me here

xampp emailing function (google smtp no longer works)

while looking at past questions, it seems like if I wanted to mail from localhost I would be able to use a gmail account through google's smtp service. However as of may 2022 it is no longer possible for external apps to use my google account: 1
Seemed like all information online was focused on using google's smtp on xampp, so I was wondering if anyone had a updated method they used for emailing from localhost?
Thanks in advance!

Laravel 8.x Email Simulation for Testing

I want to simulate email send/receive on a Laravel 8.x app, something like using Insomnia or Postman to test REST feature by sending to an endpoint. What I want to do is to send the email to the app, and debug the app processing the email it received, all of them running on a local VM (CentOS 8), without having to send emails using my actual account.
Not much info in the Internet, and results are usually for sending out from Laravel app. Could it be that my scenario is not possible?
if I got your requirements correctly, you could use a mail server like Mailu
run an email server on a docker container
connect your laravel app to the mail server using SFTP
send your email details to your laravel app via HTTP
process your email content or debug it in laravel
send the email to the mail server
or If you received an email in that mailbox, you can get the mails with laravel and process them.
I hope this help.
Not sure if I understand, but you can use Mailhog which is an email-testing tool with a fake SMTP server underneath. MailHog runs a super simple SMTP server that hogs outgoing emails sent to it.
All outgoing emails will be trapped by MailHog, being pretty useful in order to avoid sending emails accidentally when developing.
I've asked (and finally found a solution) in this question:
Auto boot MailHog on Ubuntu 20.04 about how to use it in a staging evironment, but running locally with no need to auto start the service is even easier.
There are tons of tutorials about how to implement MailHog and Laravel.

Hosting company will not allow Office 365 SMTP connection to send emails. What are possible solutions?

For our domain(mydomain.com) , we have an Office 365 account that takes care of emails and the website is hosted with a hosting company on a shared server. From my shared server Laravel App I was sending emails using the office 365 SMTP server. The hosting company now blocks this connection to office 365 SMTP server:
"Please note that your account is hosted on a shared server where outgoing SMTP connections are restricted. This is to protect the reputation of the server IP address and prevent potential spamming.
You canconsider upgrading to a cloud server plan"
I do not wish to upgrade to a cloud server plan, are there any other options for an SMTP server ? , that my Laravel app could use ? I have a reseller account with many cpanel accounts on the shared server. So i could use another one of my domains smtp server but I need the emails sent out to be from an office 365 email address. So contact#mydomain.com. Possible solutions ?
If you are sending emails, its actually not recommended to use the SMTP server used by your normal email provider (e.g. Office 365, GMail).
Instead you should use a transactional email service, which is designed for sending a large number of emails programically.
See:
Sendgrid
Amazon SES
If you are unable to send emails using a particular port (which seems to be your issue), feel free to send emails user their respective API's:
Sendgird:
https://sendgrid.com/docs/for-developers/sending-email/api-getting-started/
and https://sendgrid.com/docs/api-reference/
Amazon SES: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/ses/latest/DeveloperGuide/send-email-api.html
This will still use the usual HTTP ports, and use different ip's, therefore bypass any port & ip restrictions when sending emails.

Windows server 2008 SMTP service using for website

I am working on .net applicaton that need to send emails to clients. I am trying to figure out what would be that best solution to send emails. Here is what i have considered. Could you please suggest what would be the best way to go for?
1>Windows server 2008 in built smtp
service.
2>Exchange server hosted in our
datacenter.
3>Use google apps for sending
emails(Basically same as gmail like
for custom domain).
I have explored all options and below are findings.
1>I think would be way to go. Also
supports drop in directory to send
emails so can achieve disconnected
email activity.
2>Application would be tied up with
availability of exchange server and
we dont have any exchange server
support personal. Only developers
poke around in exchange server and
got it working. So if option 1 is as
good as 2 then would like to go with 1.
Is there any drop in directory feature in exchange server like 1?
3>Tried gmail smtp stuff didnt
work. I was receiving timeout error.
Also there is no guarantee that
gmail will send our mail
reliability. They can decide anytime
to stop sending our mails as we are
using free standard version of
google apps.
Other questions:
I installed smtp service in windows server 2008. Now to use this do i need to change any MX record and anything? What i need to do so it can send email using my domain name. Or it can send email for any domain?
I would use a hybrid of 1 and 2. Use local SMTP, but have it relay to your exchange server. Emails will queue if it can't relay to exchange and you have one server(s) that handle all of your outgoing/incoming mail. This support doc explains this setup: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/303734
You only need an MX record if you'll be receiving mail from that domain too.
I would also put in a reverse DNS entry for your domain, which will help with spam detection.
