Can't send broadcast E-Mails

Hello together,

actually i have the problem that my Rocket Chat Server can’t send Broadcast E-Mails like password reset mails. I searched a bit and found maybe two solutions.

SMTP Verification Emails not working - tried the same like in this post but i could’t change the index.js because its read only and i can’t remount the file system to rw. I always get this error: mount: /snap/rocketchat-server/1597: cannot remount /dev/loop6 read-write, is write-protected.

In the same thread is another solution but honestly i am to rookie to understand how to solve the problem.

Thanks in advance for your help

I found my problem. I was thinking i had to set the protocol in the E-Mail settings to smtp because the port from my mail client was marked as port for smtp. But it was smtps… after the change it worked directly
