i installed discourse server version 2.7.0 in ubuntu without docker  
it works fine , when users make registration by their email id  
the server gives the message " You’re almost done! we sent activation mail to email provided  
but no mail is received to users .

The test mail is working fine  
my smtp config is

```plaintext
smtp_address = "smtp.gmail.com"
smtp_port = 587
smtp_domain = sampledomain.in
smtp_user_name = "mymail@gmail.com"
smtp_password = " *********"
smtp_authentication = login
notification_email = noreply@sampledomain.in
smtp_enable_start_tls = true

```

any clues to resolve this issue to get activation mails
