Does anything show up in Mandrill or Laravel's logs?
Can you just use mandrill's smtp? Thats what I always do. Here is my mail config:
<?php
return array(
/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Mail Driver
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| Laravel supports both SMTP and PHP's "mail" function as drivers for the
| sending of e-mail. You may specify which one you're using throughout
| your application here. By default, Laravel is setup for SMTP mail.
|
| Supported: "smtp", "mail", "sendmail"
|
*/
'driver' => 'smtp',
/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| SMTP Host Address
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| Here you may provide the host address of the SMTP server used by your
| applications. A default option is provided that is compatible with
| the Postmark mail service, which will provide reliable delivery.
|
*/
'host' => 'smtp.mandrillapp.com',
/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| SMTP Host Port
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| This is the SMTP port used by your application to delivery e-mails to
| users of your application. Like the host we have set this value to
| stay compatible with the Postmark e-mail application by default.
|
*/
'port' => 587,
/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Global "From" Address
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| You may wish for all e-mails sent by your application to be sent from
| the same address. Here, you may specify a name and address that is
| used globally for all e-mails that are sent by your application.
|
*/
'from' => array('address' => '[email protected]', 'name' => null),
/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| E-Mail Encryption Protocol
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| Here you may specify the encryption protocol that should be used when
| the application send e-mail messages. A sensible default using the
| transport layer security protocol should provide great security.
|
*/
'encryption' => 'tls',
/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| SMTP Server Username
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| If your SMTP server requires a username for authentication, you should
| set it here. This will get used to authenticate with your server on
| connection. You may also set the "password" value below this one.
|
*/
'username' => '[email protected]',
/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| SMTP Server Password
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| Here you may set the password required by your SMTP server to send out
| messages from your application. This will be given to the server on
| connection so that the application will be able to send messages.
|
*/
'password' => 'SD9F87ASDF987FD9SA7DF',
/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Sendmail System Path
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| When using the "sendmail" driver to send e-mails, we will need to know
| the path to where Sendmail lives on this server. A default path has
| been provided here, which will work well on most of your systems.
|
*/
'sendmail' => '/usr/sbin/sendmail -bs',
/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Mail "Pretend"
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| When this option is enabled, e-mail will not actually be sent over the
| web and will instead be written to your application's logs files so
| you may inspect the message. This is great for local development.
|
*/
'pretend' => false,
);
I ran into this and found that I needed to include a "from" address. Mandrill's SMTP server returns an error when you omit the from address, but for some reason the API doesn't complain.
This did not work:
Mail::send('emails.welcome', $data, function($message)
{
$message->to('[email protected]', 'John Smith')
->subject('Welcome!');
});
This did work:
Mail::send('emails.welcome', $data, function($message)
{
$message->to('[email protected]', 'John Smith')
->from('[email protected]')
->subject('Welcome!');
});
thanks its work.. but in laravel 5.x you must change from 'driver' => 'smtp', to 'driver' => 'mandrill'..
Oh my god. I'm so fucking pissed off at Mandrill right now. I just found out about this. No one complained about email not working so I didn't know it was broken. But sure enough, if I don't include the "from", email doesn't arrive. Just thinking about how much email has been lost now...
mandrill is not working My composer.json "php": ">=5.5.9", "laravel/framework": "5.1.*", "illuminate/html": "^5.0", "laracasts/flash": "^1.3", "swiftmailer/swiftmailer": "^5.4", "guzzlehttp/guzzle": "~4.0" in App\config\services.php 'mandrill' => [ 'secret' => env('my secret key'), ],
I am using the following route for test Route::get('sendemail', function () {
$data = array(
'name' => "Learning Laravel",
);
Mail::send('emails.welcome', $data, function ($message) {
$message->to('[email protected]', 'John Smith')
->from('[email protected]')
->subject('Welcome!');
});
return "Your email has been sent successfully";
});
@mubeshier I just had this issue and figured things out.
If you take a look at config/services.php
, there is a this
'mandrill' => [
'secret' => env('MANDRILL_SECRET'),
],
it should be:
'secret' => env('MAIL_PASSWORD'),
