Is there any way to get the appwrite 1.6 mailer docker image working on a droplet? I can send emails via the appwrite console, but my magiclinks always fiail with a forbidden error, no matter the port, or service (tried both mailgun and resend)
- I have valid smtp settings in the ENV and the docker image, verified by sending an email with the swaks CLI.
- I always get this error when attempting to send via a droplet, but all docks say these ports should be fine

TL;DR
Developers are having trouble sending emails through a DigitalOcean Droplet using mailgun and port 2525 with the appwrite mailer docker image. Magiclinks always fail with a forbidden error, despite valid SMTP settings. The error message indicates an authentication issue. The problem seems to be with the authentication process when sending emails.
