that's how I have always been using it and never had any issues
I think it's because Gmail uses the same server for IMAP and SMTP and I am setting IMAP Port 993.
Name: smtp.gmail.com
Addresses: 2607:f8b0:4004:c06::6c
172.253.63.108

Name: imap.gmail.com
Addresses: 2607:f8b0:4004:c17::6c
2607:f8b0:4004:c17::6d
142.251.163.108
142.251.163.109

    That's very weird of them then lol Why don't they have just mail.gmail.com or something generic if it's like that? šŸ¤£

    Cheers.

    ramrajone Not sure how you are seeing that they are using the same server for smtp. and imap. Those are completely different IPv6 and IPv4 addresses and I get different ones than you. My guess would be is that both sets of ports are open on each server and then the backend routes it correctly. I agree with @KevinTheJedi though, they could just have a mail.gmail.com and be done.

    Hello everyone, after a while we managed to solve our issue. Our main issue was the HELO. No matter what host we picked, it always said HELO error. So I found a workaround and now the system is working flawlessly.
    What I did is, got inside the OSticket folder, got into the Include folder and then into the Pear folder. Then went inside the Mail folfer. There I found a file called SMTP.php. I edit the file, to be more specific, the line 134

    That is what the file said by default. I changed the string from localhost to ā€œcomputername.domainname.comā€ (The FQDN) and now it just works.
    Thank everyone for your help! Hope this helps someone else too!

    It seems like the issue may be related to your SMTP configuration after switching providers. Double-check the SMTP server settings in OSticket, including authentication, port, and encryption methods. If you recently changed your ISP, ensure they are not blocking the SMTP ports or IP. Try reaching out to DigitalAka or Mailgun for further troubleshooting.
