Hi! I need help with my FreeScout deployment on Railway. Gmail SMTP is being blocked - getting error
"smtp.gmail.com is not available on 465 port" when trying to send emails.
Can Railway support unblock outbound port 465 (and 587) for Gmail SMTP on my project? This is for legitimate
business email sending through our company Gmail Workspace.
Project ID: 85b265f2-9b1d-4b99-85ac-cef04b5faeca
Project: free-scout (FreeScout help desk application)
Thanks!

Hello,
Outbound SMTP is only available on the Pro plan and above, while Free, Trial, and Hobby plans have SMTP disabled.
For sending emails from your application, please use a dedicated email service that provides HTTPS APIs. More information can be found in our documentation:

Why did you suddenly decide to do this? Please unblock it.
You are forcing us to upgrade to a pro plan,
and I have wasted three days of work trying to figure out why my emails are not sending through SMTP.
This isn't fair. Aren't we a community?
I have recommended railway.app to all of my clients,
but now, due to this situation, our trust in you has diminished.

I agree that maybe a bit more visibility on this would have been good, I've also noticed that smtp stops working, maybe I missed something but I can't see any email about this change....also there is nothing mentioned in the price table
