Unable to get the verification email

Hello guys, after three hours I don’t know what more to test.
I have re-installed many but anything is working properly.

I have checked my SMTP configuration with an external site and is working fine.

My domain provider is using 465 SSL required.
Right now all emails are arriving correctly from external sites (and as said with the tool).

I have configured my discourse setup with SSL.
The site works correctly, it opens the page and auto-https://, but when I fill the first-step information the confirmation email never arrives.

My app.yml config:

## BE *VERY* CAREFUL WHEN EDITING!
## YAML FILES ARE SUPER SUPER SENSITIVE TO MISTAKES IN WHITESPACE OR ALIGNMENT!

It appears like you’re trying to use a user webmail service in place of an app mail service like Mailgun. Is there any reason you’re not using Mailgun or an equivalent provider?

@justin I’m not comfortable with Mailgun. I have configured now the email with sendinblue but not sure if it’s a good option because it limits to 40/hour emails.
