skip to Main Content

I would like to send an email using Laravel, but I am getting an error, I am sending it this way:

UsersController.php

....
$user_created = (new UserCreated($user))                
                ->onQueue('emails')->afterCommit();

            Mail::to($user->email)
                ->queue($user_created);
.....

This is the mailable: UserCreated.php

<?php

namespace AppMail;

use AppModelsListing;
use IlluminateBusQueueable;
use IlluminateContractsQueueShouldQueue;
use IlluminateMailMailable;
use IlluminateQueueSerializesModels;
use IlluminateSupportFacadesLog;
use IlluminateSupportFacadesURL;
use Throwable;
use IlluminateMailMailablesContent;
use IlluminateMailMailablesEnvelope;
use IlluminateMailMailablesAddress;

class UserCreated extends Mailable
{
    use Queueable, SerializesModels;


    /**
     * Create a new message instance.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function __construct(protected User $user) {}

    /**
     * Get the message content definition.
     */
    public function content(): Content
    {
      

        return new Content(
            markdown: 'emails.users.created',
            with: [....]
        );
    }

    /**
     * Get the message envelope.
     */
    public function envelope(): Envelope
    {
        return new Envelope(
            from: new Address(config('mail.from.address'), config('mail.from.name')),
            subject: 'test'          
        );
    }
    
}

I noticed the email is not being sent to the user’s email address, it is sent to the email address that is in my .env file:

[email protected],

what can I do?

  1. If MAIL_TO_ADDRESS is set in env, Laravel will override the recipient address and send all emails to this address. You can keep MAIL_TO_ADDRESS for your development environment and for testing but in production remove it and after that run the following commands to make sure the changes work:

    php artisan config:cache
    php artisan queue:restart --queue=queue_name

  2. The MAIL_TO_ADDRESS should be MAIL_FROM_ADDRESS, as far as I understand you want to send mail from [email protected].
