This my parameter.yml
parameters:
database_host: localhost
database_port: null
database_name: mongodb
database_user: mongodb
database_password: *******
mailer_transport: smtp
mailer_host: //which host?
mailer_user: support@domain.com
mailer_password: *****
secret: ThisTokenIsNotSoSecretChangeIt
And this is my config.yml
swiftmailer:
transport: "%mailer_transport%"
encryption: ssl
auth_mode: login
host: "%mailer_host%"
username: "%mailer_user%"
password: "%mailer_password%"
spool: { type: memory }
I tried different hosts like ~,127.0.0.1,localhost,etc in the mailer_host: parameter. But mail is not sending.
If I use Gmail account with,
mailer_host: smtp.gmail.com
the mail is sending properly. Where am I wrong?
You probably don't have a SMTP daemon running on your machine. The daemon should then listen on an IP address or a machine hostname which you then put in the configuration.
Other thing you can do is to change the mail_transport parameter to mail or sendmail – those do not require SMTP daemon.
