When I try to send an email from my laravel site I get this error

Swift_TransportException in StreamBuffer.php line 268: Connection could not be established with host lin01.hkdns.co.za [ #0]

all my details is right. my env

MAIL_DRIVER=smtp
MAIL_HOST=lin01.hkdns.co.za
MAIL_PORT=465
MAIL_USERNAME=info@mysite.co.za
MAIL_PASSWORD=password
MAIL_ENCRYPTION=ssl

In my mail.php

'driver' => env('MAIL_DRIVER', 'smtp'),

'host' => env('MAIL_HOST', 'smtp.mailgun.org'),

'port' => env('MAIL_PORT', 587),

'from' => [
    'address' => env('MAIL_FROM_ADDRESS', 'info@mysite.co.za'),
    'name' => env('MAIL_FROM_NAME', 'Info'),
],

'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'),
    ],
],

Did I miss something or is this a problem on my server?
