Every time I submit the contact form on my Laravel application I receive the error message in the title. I've followed the recommendation in this discussion, but it has had no effect even after php artisan cache:clear and php artisan config:cache. Here's the relevant code:
.env
MAIL_DRIVER=smtp
MAIL_HOST=smtp.gmail.com
MAIL_PORT=465
MAIL_USERNAME=username@gmail.com
MAIL_PASSWORD=password
MAIL_ENCRYPTION=tls
config/mail.php
<?php
return [
'driver' => env('MAIL_DRIVER', 'smtp'),
'host' => env('MAIL_HOST', 'smtp.gmail.org'),
'port' => env('MAIL_PORT', 465),
'from' => [
'address' => env('MAIL_FROM_ADDRESS', 'hello@example.com'),
'name' => env('MAIL_FROM_NAME', 'Example'),
],
'encryption' => env('MAIL_ENCRYPTION', 'tls'),
'username' => env('MAIL_USERNAME'),
'password' => env('MAIL_PASSWORD'),
'sendmail' => '/usr/sbin/sendmail -bs',
'markdown' => [
'theme' => 'default',
'paths' => [
resource_path('views/vendor/mail'),
],
],
];
I was under the impression from the documentation that the global 'from' wouldn't fire unless no other from address was provided, but in my controller for the mail, I specified the address supplied to the contact form as the 'from,' is that a conflict point somehow? It doesn't seem to be from the error message details.
Because the contact form is not a distinct view but the bottom of the mainpage view, the Controller function lives in PageController
public function postContact(Request $request) {
$this->validate($request, [
'email' => 'required|email',
'subject' => 'required|min:3',
'message' => 'required|min:10'
]);
$data = array(
'email' => $request->email,
'subject' => $request->subject,
'mailbody' => $request->message
);
Mail::send('emails.contact', $data, function($message) use ($data) {
$message->from($data['email']);
$message->to('username@gmail.com');
$message->subject($data['subject']);
});
}
