    Hi @ccwtech,

    Yes, it looks like bluehost is redirecting you transparently to their own mail servers, and you’re likely seeing the TLS certificate verification failures because you’re logging into the wrong server. You might need to contact your host to fix the issue. In the meantime, you can test by disabling the certificate verification. Here’s the code snippet to disable certificate verification. You should not do this unless you have to – it’s compromising your security.

    I hope this helps!

    Hi @ccwtech – We haven’t heard from you in about a week, so I’m going to go ahead and mark this ticket resolved. If you still have questions, though, please feel welcome to continue the conversation
