SMTP mailing blocks the form submission

How to fix SMTP mailing blocking form submission in ChronoForms.

Overview

The issue occurs when the SMTP security protocol is entered with incorrect case sensitivity.
Ensure the SMTP security protocol value, such as 'ssl', is typed in all lowercase letters to match the required case-sensitive format.

Hello!

I'm stuck with a curious (and certainly chronoforms-newbie!) issue.
I tested a form with an email notification : it seems to work with PHP mail but not with SMTP.
My SMTP params are ok in Joomla settings and work fine with an other compomemt like Foxcontact.

After clicking on Submit, the page simply gets stuck and turns to blank after a while.
I added some screenshots to help : I also tested it with the basic demo form included, assuming I may have made some mistakes in the email settings of the form... which is possible ! :?

Thanks for any advice !

Hi again !

Ok I found what was wrong : in the SMTP security protocol, I put "SSL" instead of "ssl" : didn't know this field was case-sensitive !
Well, if this can help the community...🙂
Problem solved !
