Smtp default ports blocked : 25, 465, 587

Hi,

Great thanks for all the great work.

DigitalOcean blocks SMTP ports 25, 465, and 587 on Droplets to prevent spam and other abuses.

They recommend using alternative ports if application, such as port 2525. Or using REST API with SendGrid, which allows you to send emails via HTTP requests instead of the traditional SMTP settings.

Thanks in advance for the support

Do you have some question or you're just sharing this? It's pretty common to block those ports.

Thanks for very quick response.

Is there any workaround to get outgoing emails working in this scenario ?

The parameters in traccar.xml requires ports which are block on server. How can we use alternative port ?

That's not a question to Traccar. Traccar can use any port. It's a question to your email service.

Checked, there is an alternative on sendgrid with port 2525. Thanks
