Hi, I am trying to use alternative mail drivers. The reason is that I don't want my server to handle the emails and that management is done by an external SMTP service. This way I save resources/performance.
The problem is that no possible SMTP configuration works. I've read practically all the help threads on Flarum, and nothing works, neither removing the encryption, nor writing the encryption in lowercase, nor using GMAIL or third party services... And yes, if I use the external SMTP settings in WordPress or a Mautic installation, it works without problems. My forum can only send mails if I use the "mail" driver, if I switch to any other it will always give an error, regardless of the settings I use.
I leave the output from flarum.

I had thought of installing php mailer in my Flarum installation (I don't know if this is possible) and have the mails sent from there.
