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 D…

[Bild] Satwik_Kansal: I don’t think there’s a concept of username in sendgrid They use different terminology but you’re still connecting to what is essentially a standard SMTP server, which will require authentication. Go to the Teammates section - https://app.sendgrid.com/settings/teammates …
