Trying to access array offset on value of type null in laravel 10 when sending email

i’m using laravel 10 and livewire 3. i’m trying to send email using mailtrap and i’m working on my local machine now.
This is my livewire component

namespace AppLivewireInbox;

use LivewireAttributesTitle;
use LivewireAttributesValidate;
use LivewireComponent;
use IlluminateSupportFacadesMail;
use AppMailComposeMail;

#[Title('Email Compose')]
class Compose extends Component
{
    #[Validate('required|email')]
    public $to;
    #[Validate('required|string|max:255')]
    public $subject;
    #[Validate('required|string')]
    public $message;

    public function send()
    {
        $this->validate();

        if(!is_null($this->to)){
            Mail::to($this->to)->send(new ComposeMail($this->subject, $this->message));
        }


        session()->flash('success', 'Mail sended successfully');
    }

    public function render()
    {
        return view('livewire.inbox.compose');
    }
}

     */
    public function __construct($subject, $messages)
    {
        $this->subject = $subject;
        $this->messages = $this->sanitizeMessage($messages);
    }

    /**

    public function envelope(): Envelope
    {
        return new Envelope(
            from: new Address('[email protected]', 'john'),
            subject: 'testing',
        );
