Connection could not be established with host smtp.mailtrap.io [Connection refused #111] about laravel-auth HOT 12 CLOSED

though the issue looks stale but what worked for me was changing
mail driver from smtp to sendmail
encryption from null to ssl
then i did a reset to get new credentials (username and password) in my mailtrap account

MAIL_DRIVER=sendmail
MAIL_HOST=smtp.mailtrap.io
MAIL_PORT=465
MAIL_USERNAME=deebbe6d594
MAIL_PASSWORD=65beafc98d*
MAIL_FROM_ADDRESS="anchoello@gmail.com"
MAIL_FROM_NAME="Anchor Support"
MAIL_ENCRYPTION=ssl

from laravel-auth.

try

MAIL_PORT=465
MAIL_ENCRYPTION=tls

from laravel-auth.

Set the port to 587 and encryption to tls then it will work
.....
MAIL_PORT=587
MAIL_ENCRYPTION=tls
.......

Its something with your environment and the email setup. Its going to need to be debugged as to what the email setting should be and then if they emails are even getting out from your server/localhost.

Where did you guys get the username and password?

create an account from http://mailtrap.io

from laravel-auth.

check your .env and your servers email configuration.

Most likely the encryption type and port.
