How to send email using Laravel 5.2?

Question

Here is my Route.php

Route::get('invitations' , 'Invitationscontroller@accept');

Below is my Invitationscontroller.php

public function accept(){

        $email_id =  Users::select('email_id')->get();

        Mail::send('test' , array('user' => $email_id) , function ($message){

            $message -> to('[email protected]' ) -> subject ('Welcome!!!');
        });
        return "Success";
    }

I have configured mail.php as per requirements stated in tutorial.

When I run the URL, I get the error as

Swift_TransportException in AbstractSmtpTransport.php line 383: Expected response code 250 but got code "530", with message "530 5.7.1 Authentication required
"

Where m I missing something?

Thank you.

As the error message clearly says, you have a problem with the authentication towards your mail providers SMTP.

You need to configure your mail settings in your .env file, see sample data:

MAIL_DRIVER=smtp
MAIL_HOST=mailtrap.io
MAIL_PORT=2525
MAIL_USERNAME=null
MAIL_PASSWORD=null
MAIL_ENCRYPTION=null

Please check that you entered valid data.

I have configured .env file with this input, still getting the same error.

Try if [email protected] works and refresh your Laravel cache afterwards with php artisan config:cache

Now it is showing this error.

Expected response code 250 but got code "535", with message "535-5.7.8 Username and Password not accepted. Learn more at 535 5.7.8 https://support.google.com/mail/answer/14257 i20sm5418126pfj.91 - gsmtp
