Troubleshoting migration from swiftmailer to symfony mailer, errors

I upgraded to php 8.2 and from swiftmailer (which is archived) to the new recommended symfony mailer (without using symfony but as standalone)

I was creating swift mailer very simply like this

      $this->mailer = new Swift_Mailer(
                (new Swift_SmtpTransport(
                    env('MAIL_HOST'),
                    env('MAIL_PORT')
                ))
                    ->setUsername(env('MAIL_USERNAME'))
                    ->setPassword(env('MAIL_PASSWORD'))
            )

MAIL_PORT=25, simple smtp. Environmental variables are the same before and after library change.

My new code with symfony mailer is

            $this->mailer = new \Symfony\Component\Mailer\Mailer(
                (new \Symfony\Component\Mailer\Transport\Smtp\EsmtpTransport(
                    env('MAIL_HOST'),
                    (int)env('MAIL_PORT'),
                ))
                    ->setUsername(env('MAIL_USERNAME'))
                    ->setPassword(env('MAIL_PASSWORD'))
            ),

I try to send emails but they fail.

My mailserver logs are I changed the ip to x.x.x.secret and also sanitized some other data.

The change was as simple as above. Created the mailer like that, then am sending it in php via

    /**
     * @param array $headers
     */
    public function sendRaw(string $content, string $subject, EmailAddress $from, EmailAddress $to, array $headers = []): void
    {
        $message = (new Email())
            ->subject($subject)
            ->from(new Address($from->getEmail(), $from->getName()))
            ->to($to->getEmail(), $to->getEmail())
            ->text($content);

        $this->mailer->send($message);
    }

If I rollback my code to swiftmailer it works. (with exactly same mailserver and no other change)

Mailserver uses postfix and dovecot.

Dovecot auth config is

auth_mechanisms = plain login

Again no changes there, one library works the other not (probably due to some config that I need to figure out)

I solved this by adding 'verify_peer' => 0,

to the dsn query string.

The error that was thrown by the symfony mailer

 Unable to connect with STARTTLS: stream_socket_enable_crypto(): SSL operation failed with code 1. OpenSSL Error messages:
error:0A000086:SSL routines::certificate verify failed;

This made me research and disable peer verification.

To do this I changed my code to

<?php
// other class stuff

$this->mailer = new \Symfony\Component\Mailer\Mailer(
    \Symfony\Component\Mailer\Transport::fromDsn(
        formSmtpConnectionString(
            env('MAIL_HOST'),
            (int)env('MAIL_PORT'),
            env('MAIL_USERNAME'),
            env('MAIL_PASSWORD'),
            [
                'verify_peer' => 0,
            ],
        ),
    )
);


function formSmtpConnectionString(
    string $host,
    int    $port,
    string $username,
    string $password,
    array  $options = []
): string
{
    $qp = [];

    if (array_key_exists('verify_peer', $options)) {
        $qp['verify_peer'] = $options['verify_peer'] ?? null === 0 ? 0 : 1;
    }

    return sprintf(
        'smtp://%s:%s@%s:%s%s',
        urlencode($username),
        urlencode($password),
        urlencode($host),
        $port,
        count($qp) === 0 ? '' : sprintf('?%', http_build_query($qp)),
    );
}
