Description

My version of gitlab is 11.11.8. When I add a mailbox, when I send a confirmation email, I will report 500 errors. The email can't be sent and the password can't be retrieved through the email. I use Outlook email.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the confirmation-email failure with GitLab 11.11.8 and an Outlook mailbox, then inspect the resulting 500-error logs and mail configuration. Done means confirmation and password-retrieval emails are sent successfully without a 500 error.
