Expected response code 250 but got code 530 with message 530 5 7 1 Authentication required

Question

I got stuck on this error while I was trying to configure SMTP mail on laravel

Here is my configuration on .env

MAIL_DRIVER=smtp MAIL_HOST=smtp.mailtrap.io MAIL_PORT=2525 MAIL_USERNAME=fff3c01db52ee0 MAIL_PASSWORD=feaeda91dc9ab6 MAIL_ENCRYPTION=TLS

I have to try to authenticate the SMTP on env but I keep getting the same error so for now I have been stuck on that error. Any solution for this please?

Answer 1

Your mail.php on config you declare host as smtp.mailgun.org and port is 587 while on env is different so you need to change your mail.php to

'host' => env('MAIL_HOST', 'mailtrap.io'),

'port' => env('MAIL_PORT', 2525),

if you desire to use mailtrap.

Then run:-
 

php artisan config:cache
