Sending mail from localhost

[2Belette]

Hi,

Anyone using the same host where Cachet is installed to send email without using external SMTP server?
What would be the best configuration for that and what would be the corresponding .env?
I made some tries but I haven't been able to make it work for now :(
Many thanks :)

Try driver=sendmail

Thanks! I tried but nothing..
I have confirmed that sendmail works correctly on my server and I have sent a test mail no issue here..

is there any issue to leave null on some parameters ?
here are my parameters:

MAIL_DRIVER=sendmail
MAIL_HOST=localhost
MAIL_PORT=25
MAIL_USERNAME=null
MAIL_PASSWORD=null
[email protected]
MAIL_NAME="mail cachet"
MAIL_ENCRYPTION=null

any log fil I can't take a look on Cachet to get more information?
many thanks

That should be all you need... Try running rm -rf bootstrap/cache{,t}/*

thanks I did that but where the log should go to ? (syslog/journalctl/file?)

./storage/logs/.

Thanks I can see the logs but nothing inside the logs to help me debug the mail notification..
