My FastAPI backend is trying to connect to my SMTP server

(cloud-f16b5d.managed-vps.net) on port 587 but getting a

TimeoutError on Railway while it works fine locally and

on SMTP testing tools.

Error:

aiosmtplib.errors.SMTPConnectError: Error connecting to

cloud-f16b5d.managed-vps.net on port 587: TimeoutError

Please unblock outbound port 587 for my project so I can

send emails via SMTP.

Your workspace is on the Hobby plan, and outbound SMTP (ports 25, 465, 587) is disabled on Free, Trial, and Hobby plans. SMTP is only available on the Pro plan and above. If you'd like to stay on Hobby, you can use a transactional email service with an HTTPS API such as Resend, SendGrid, or Postmark. If you upgrade to Pro, redeploy your service afterward for SMTP access to take effect. More details are in our outbound networking docs.
