XF 2.1 [FIXED] XF Latest version + MailGun

[whittinghamj]

Im new to XF so please forgive me if this is in the wrong place. I have used the search function but was unable to find a solution.

Quick bit of background info. I have tried with / without firewalls on / off. I have added the smtp.mailgun.org IP's to the firewall whitelist.
This is running on cPanel and I have disabled the SMTP Tweak setting that only allows MTA and root users to use external SMTPs.

Here is the error message I get when trying to send email emails or private messages or any email from the XF platform.

• Swift_TransportException: Email to jamie.whittingham@gmail.com failed: Expected response code 220 but got code "", with message ""
• src/vendor/swiftmailer/swiftmailer/lib/classes/Swift/Transport/AbstractSmtpTransport.php:383

The odd thing is, its not even trying to make an outbound connection as when I use the wrong user / pass on purpose, the error message is the same.

I also tried with an internal cPanel SMTP account and get the same results so I'm 99% sure its not a MailGun issue.

Any advice would be great, thanks so much.

Solved - human error

I was using smtp.mailgun.org instead of smtp.eu.mailgun.org

Sorry about that
