Catching Mail Sending Exception

My client STMP server (MS Exchange) is often crashing or not responding for some reason.
What is the good way to catch email sending exception to continue the execution of the rest of the code ?

thanks

You could do a try catch block and report the exception to the log using ApplicationException

something like:

try {
    // Mail Code here
} catch (ApplicationException $ex) {
    Log::error($ex->getMessage());
}

Hello, With OC v3.* the SMTP mail sending method didn’t work anymore for me. After some research and writing to my host support, I came up with following solution. The host support told me, that I need to add the local IP address of theirs: In my .env file I added this line: MAIL_EHLO_DOMAIN={localServerIP} Then one should add this local domain to config/mail.php like this: 'smtp' => [ 'transport' => 'smtp', 'host' => env('MAIL_HOST', 'smtp.mailgun.org'), 'port' => env('MAIL_POR…

Thanks @maki3000 I will have a look

the error returned is “550 5.7.1 Relaying denied”, that’s all

[chris]

Symfony\Component\Mailer\Exception\TransportException with message 'Expected response code "250" but got an empty response.'
