My mail server is configured to send and receive from both admin@democracyrd.org and system@democracyrd.org, and I have tested it outside of Discourse. I tried to setup the smtp email ass system@democracyrd.org and the admin email as admin@democracyrd.org, but when I test inside discourse I get the following error:
Testing sending to a*********@protonmail.com using system@democracyrd.org:O****************A1@mail.democracyrd.org:465.
