Answer 1

Try change the port number to 587 .

in mail.php

'port' => env('MAIL_PORT', 587),

in .env

MAIL_PORT=465

Answer 2

1: Either you must allow less secure apps or use app password by enabling 2 step verification on your gmail acc.

2: Disable any antivirus on your machine(this is something no one will tell u but is necessary in many cases).

3: Don't forget to clear your cache (sometimes it don't take updated content from .env file)

4: You don't need to change anything in Mailer inside config directory(not recommended), you should use env variables

Answer 3

只需从您的计算机禁用防病毒
