Is it possible to set the mailer within a laravel mailable? - laravel

Question

I have a mailable, and I'd like it to always use a specific mailer. Currently, I send the mail like this:
Mail::mailer('smtp2')->to($recipient)->send(new AuthTokenMail());
What I'd like to do is set the mailer within the mailable, the same way I set the queue, like this:
class AuthTokenMail extends Mailable implements ShouldQueue
{
use Queueable, SerializesModels;
public function __construct(int $code)
{
$this->onQueue('email2');
$this->mailer('smtp2'); // doesn't work!
}
...

Answer 1

for you to be able to use the specific mail details you need to set it up in your mail.php config file. like this:
'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,
'auth_mode' => null,
],
'smtp2' => [
'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,
'auth_mode' => null,
],
...
...
...
];
