Why does Laravel mail not work on a live server?

Question

I have a hosting on Godaddy. I have written an email app. It works properly on localhost. I can't run on hosting. When you enter the smtp settings of different servers, it still does not work. I also read the following topics.

Unfortunately, you may not be able to use an external mail relay with shared hosting. https://www.godaddy.com/help/send-form-mail-using-an-smtp-relay-server-953

These should be the GoDaddy localhost settings:

### MAIL SERVER
MAIL_DRIVER=mail
MAIL_HOST=localhost
MAIL_PORT=25
MAIL_USERNAME=
MAIL_PASSWORD=
MAIL_ENCRYPTION=null
MAIL_FROM_ADDRESS=user@domain.com
MAIL_FROM_NAME="Your Company"
