Hi,

I’m trying to use Sendgrid email service and keep getting this error in the logs

```
Job exception: 535 Authentication failed: Bad username / password

```

I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong, here’s how my configuration looks like

```
 DISCOURSE_SMTP_ADDRESS: smtp.sendgrid.net
 DISCOURSE_SMTP_PORT: 587
 DISCOURSE_SMTP_USER_NAME: apiKey
 DISCOURSE_SMTP_PASSWORD: 'SG.xxxx.xxxxxx.xxxx'

```

I’ve also tried to use port 2525 on the suggestion of [Fresh install. Works. Sendgrid not sending emails - #5 by Ham](https://meta.discourse.org/t/fresh-install-works-sendgrid-not-sending-emails/68395/5) , but that didn’t work either.

I’m able to establish a connection using telnet.

Can someone please help? Any idea what I could be doing wrong?
