Hi there,  
I just did a fresh install of Taiga on my Docker host and after a few issues I managed to get it to work but no matter what, the email is not working. Following is the screen snapshot (insides there are my _ **.env** _ file and my _**./taiga-manage.sh test\_emails [xxx@xxx.com](mailto:xxx@xxx.com)**_ command result)

 ![Snipaste_2025-06-11_17-43-28](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex017/uploads/taiga/original/2X/f/fda5c41613b5eb5b97ea09b3aae9c11fe323dbe1.jpeg)  
why is _**ConnectionResetError: [Errno 104] Connection reset by peer**_ ? Anyone can help, please?

It 's working now. The reason was - There was a special Symbolic Character in my password. I changed that, so it works.  
Thanks a lot.
