I've a form contact on my website and I want the form to be sent via email when submitted.
I've tried it in xampp and it's working fine.
On shared hosting, it does not work.
I'm using my own custom domain smtp.
Someone can explain me why it's not working ?
Your shared hosting probably blocks outgoing SMTP connections. Many hosting providers do that to prevent spam. You can try using a HTTP/WEB API instead of SMTP to send email.
Some email APIs like Flute Mail allow you to set up an HTTP API connection which can immediately forward the request through your "custom domain smtp" server. So you can keep using your custom domain email server, but get an API for it.
Otherwise you'll have to set up a Web API yourself with an open source tool like Postal.
In your laravel .env file if add following parameters mentioned below and create a e-mail on your shared hosting and add username, password and host of your hosting.
MAIL_DRIVER=smtp
MAIL_HOST=shared_host_name
MAIL_PORT=587
MAIL_USERNAME=mail#sharedhost.com
MAIL_PASSWORD=password
MAIL_ENCRYPTION=tls
I suppose then it would work fine.

I've a domain and an email address dedicated. I've a SMTP server provided by my domain. I'm asking myself if it's possible to send mail directly with this SMTP server without passing through API like MailGun (because, it's not free!), and how can I do that ?
Thanks !

Your error says Authentication error. This is nothing to do with Laravel/PHP mailer.
Try one of these below:
Clear cache
Check if you have modified config file. Make sure your .env variables are being pointed in your config file
Check if your server allows outbound emails
Check if you have right credentials such as host name, username, password
If you need extra authentication to allow using smtp services like google. You will need to activate to allow to use less secure app.
Finally, but not the least
If your mail server password contains a # then you should quote the environment string since everything after # will be taken as comment (starting in Laravel 5.8)
put the port and host as follows
MAIL_PORT = 587
MAIL_HOST= smtp.gmail.com
and also in your gmail . Disable two authentication and enabled unsecured apps
and then it would be okkay

My Laravel Apps cannot send email using another shared hosting configuration.
I'm developing laravel app (Laravel 5.7), one of my apps function is to send email after register new account. I have deployed my apps to my VPS and I have account on a shared hosting. I used my shared hosting configuration for sending email and I have added the config to my .env file, like
MAIL_DRIVER=smtp
MAIL_HOST=mail.embara.id
MAIL_PORT=465
MAIL_USERNAME="username"
MAIL_PASSWORD="password"
MAIL_FROM_ADDRESS="FROM"
MAIL_FROM_NAME="FROM NAME"
MAIL_ENCRYPTION=null
but nothing happen, only failed (I am using queue, and i have tested using mailtrap.io, everything works fine)
Anyone knows what is wrong with my config?
Thanks
Think you need ssl, try this:
MAIL_DRIVER=smtp
MAIL_HOST=mail.embara.id
MAIL_PORT=465
MAIL_USERNAME=noreply#embara.id # <-- full email address
MAIL_PASSWORD=secret
MAIL_ENCRYPTION=ssl # <-- This
background
I have a Joomla 1.5 site, for registering user in site to enable the email sending system's, configured the smtp server in joomla configuration.
my config is:
mailer:'smtp server'
smtp host:'smtp.gmail.com'
smtp user:'myuser#gmail.com'
smtp psw:'mypass'
smtp port:'465'
smtp authentication:'yes'
smtp security:'ssl'
I don't know becuase does not Work and it is worth noting that php mail function dosen't work!
This is Answer Of Question:
I'm use the free-hosting and the hosting company block the many php functions.
One of the php functions is fsockopen that socket to smtp server to connect them.
I hope this experiment help my friends.
uncomment "extension=php_openssl.dll" in your php.ini file
add exception for port 465
extension=php_openssl.dll
is used for windows hosting only, and most probably you will be using linux hosting so you don't need to worry about it.
I had a similar issue like yours and it turned out that the php function that I wrote in a script was not using smtp set in Joomla configuration, to confirm try using password reset or some other function that uses email from Joomla framework, and if you get that email successfully that would mean that your php email function is not using smtp.
