Mail configuration in Laravel for Godaddy webmail

Question

I am trying to send email from my Godaddy Webmail. Here is the configuration of .env file

MAIL_DRIVER=smtp    
MAIL_HOST=dedrelay.secureserver.net    
MAIL_PORT=465    
MAIL_USERNAME=my_webmail_username    
MAIL_PASSWORD='my_web_mail_pass'    
MAIL_ENCRYPTION=ssl

But in log file it shows error

local.ERROR: Connection could not be established with host dedrelay.secureserver.net

I understand that there is a problem in 'MAIL_HOST'. But how can I get the correct 'MAIL_HOST' of my Godaddy webmail ?

I have found the solution.

Go to 'Email Accounts'(Search Email Account in search bar) from your Godaddy cPanel. In 'Email Accounts' page goto 'Email Account' tab and click to 'Access Webmail'.

At the bottom of this 'Access Webmail' page you will find 'Outgoing Server' portion under 'Mail Client Manual Settings' section. This 'Outgoing Server' is the desired 'MAIL_HOST'.

Have you tried using smtpout.secureserver.net as the MAIL_HOST instead, suggested by GoDaddy

If the above doesn't work, the following StackOverflow answer may help.

You need to change MAIL_PORT to 587 and set encryption to tls following is the example

MAIL_DRIVER=smtp
MAIL_HOST=host53.registrar-servers.com
MAIL_PORT=587
MAIL_USERNAME=no-reply@someemail.com
MAIL_PASSWORD=mypassword
MAIL_ENCRYPTION=tls
