Hello,

I have WireMailSmtp 0.3.0

I am trying to connect to Microsoft Hosted emails and doing bellow settings

SMTP HostName: smtp.office365.com
Port: 25
SMTP user: full email address
SMTP password: email password

But when i try to test connection I got the error 
ERROR: SMTP settings did not work.
could not connect to the host "smtp.office365.com": Connection refused

I am able to login to outlook online with the same user and password.

I just want to send email through SMTP

How to fix this issue? your help will be highly appreciated.

Thanks

I can confirm that @Rudy suggestions work here. In fact smtp-mail.outlook.com seems to be one of the last SMTP servers that actually still works when called from a web app. I haven't had any luck with gmail's service recently. In fact, I have completely abandoned SMTP and use MailGun for everything these days - it's much faster via the API, than an SMTP call (no delay for the user), is free for 10,000 sends a month. The only downside is the initially setting up of domain records if you're not familiar with it or don't have access to change them.
