Complete amateur here. I had to remove Sendgrid because I was being overcharged for my small site, so I switched to SMTP2Go. I received the instructions for what to use for Discourse, and made the changes via the discourse-setup command in the console. Since I did that, I cannot access the forum by IP or url: [forum.g2ic.com](http://forum.g2ic.com) I didn’t make any changes to anything else, so I’m at a loss what’s wrong. I have rebuilt the app several times with no difference. ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/4X/a/d/5/ad54af416162c4ceb4aa6d10248c1dbfb6e6ab49.png) There was another person who had this issue but he had Wordpress running at the same port, but I don’t have anything like that. I ONLY changed the SMTP info. Can anyone give me ANY insight? I’m willing to pay for help – I’ve been struggling with this for the past 7 hours. I just need this resolved. Cloudflare is handling my DNS DigitalOcean is the host. Thank you thank you thank you --- _[View the full topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/changed-email-service-now-the-forum-wont-resolve-via-ip-address-nor-url/385331)._
