Hi,

Im using L4.2 guzzle ~5.2 homestead and mandrill.

Does anybody know what could be the cause or solution to this?

I set up mail as per one of the laracasts, everything was working properly for a few days, then suddenly I get

GuzzleHttp \ Exception \ ConnectException cURL error 7:

curl error 7 seems to mean that it cant connect.

I tried to send emails using a different app of mine (not laravel or guzzle but still using mandrill) and it works, Im pretty sure mandrill service is working the same.

https://mandrillapp.com/settings/api Does not show any new successful or failed requests.

I tried sending from different locations incase the port is blocked or something.

My api key is the same and I did not change anything to do with email. The only changes I made is to some environment variables that are not related. I changed it back anyway and it still does not work.

In the documentation it says to use guzzle 4 while I use guzzle 5 http://laravel.com/docs/4.2/mail Could that be the problem? But It worked before anyway so I really dont get it.

How would I downgrade guzzle btw? Change composer to "~4.*" and then do composer install?
