I seem to be having a problem with Discourse sending emails over SMTP. I have verified my hostname with my Email Service Provider and have successfully sent emails with Telnet and via sendmail via the host VM as well as via Telnet within the Discourse Docker container. I had a look at integrating …

@pfaffman Thanks for having some time for this. As it transpired the issue was DNS related. Everything now working correctly :grinning:
