Question

Im trying to Mail in Laravel 5.1

my mail.php code is

 return [
     \'driver\' => env(\'MAIL_DRIVER\', \'smtp\'),
     \'host\' => env(\'MAIL_HOS         


        

Answer 1

you need to enable your 2 step verification from gmail account.

https://myaccount.google.com/security

then use the generated key from there to your ENV_PASSWORD instead your real password.

Answer 2

I had the same problem. I changed,

MAIL_ENCRYPTION=null to 
MAIL_ENCRYPTION=tls 

php artisan config:cache

and it worked.

Answer 3

After enabling logging to the mail from the less secured devices, make sure that .env file contains the following configurations:

MAIL_DRIVER=smtp
MAIL_HOST=smtp.gmail.com
MAIL_PORT=587
MAIL_USERNAME=your_email@gmail.com
MAIL_PASSWORD="your_passwrod_here"
MAIL_ENCRYPTION=tls

Make sure that your password is rounded by the double quotes "".

Make sure that your mail.php file contains configurations like the following:

'from' => [
    'address' => env('MAIL_FROM_ADDRESS', 'your_email@gmail.com'),
    'name' => env('MAIL_FROM_NAME', 'your_email'),
],
'encryption' => env('MAIL_ENCRYPTION', 'tls'),

And don't forget to close the server and run php artisan config:clear to clear the configuration cache.

This worked for me

Answer 4

Change in .env file:

MAIL_ENCRYPTION=tls

Clear cache:

php artisan config:cache

For Gmail accounts you need also turn on "Less secure app access" on https://myaccount.google.com/security. However that option shouldn't be changed on main account.

Answer 5

Use SSL and port 465 like this:

MAIL_DRIVER=smtp
MAIL_HOST=smtp.gmail.com
MAIL_PORT=465
MAIL_USERNAME=mail@gmail.com
MAIL_PASSWORD=12345678
MAIL_ENCRYPTION=ssl

100% will work.

Answer 6

You should restart the artisan after those changes. That was the issue for me.
