Reset Password - SMTP is not working

[Moshezbusy]

Hi,
I’m trying to get a reset email on my Self hosted app.
I tried Gmail and Sendgrid SMTP but Im getting the same error.

My SMTP setting:
N8N_EMAIL_MODE=smtp
N8N_SMTP_HOST=smtp.sendgrid.net
N8N_SMTP_PORT=587
N8N_SMTP_USER=apikey
N8N_SMTP_PASS=SG.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
N8N_SMTP_SENDER=Email address.
N8N_SMTP_SSL=false
N8N_USER_MANAGEMENT_DISABLED=false

Im using Version 1.90.2 with Docker on digital Ocean.

SMTP Setup

Found the issue, my VPS cloud provider had port 465 blocked and my SMTP doesn’t work on port 587. They uncloked port 465 and emails started going out. I have my docker compose file SMTP port set to 465 and SSL to true, all working. Thanks for your help, all.

Thank you all, I found the solution that no one talks about.
In Digital Ocean they block the port 587 because of spam issues.
If you want to get email you need to use 2525 port (worked for me with Sendgrid).

Also, add this at the bottom of the nano .env file below the SMTP: N8N_USER_MANAGEMENT_DISABLED=false
