Nextcloud version 15.0.0.10 / Offical “_latest” Docker Image
Operating system and version: Linux / Synology NAS / Docker
The issue:
Trying to configure the SMTP server of my internet provider with Nextcloud I always get below error message
The output of your Nextcloud log in Admin > Logging:
Error ocs_api OCP\AppFramework\OCS\OCSException: Unable to send the invitation mail
2018-12-30T09:50:38+0100
Error ocs_api Swift_TransportException: Connection could not be established with host mail.mnet-online.de [ #0] Log data: ++ Starting Swift_SmtpTransport !! Connection could not be established with host mail.mnet-online.de [ #0] (code: 0)

Thats what I try to configure (translated from German:
Send mode: SMTP
Encryption: SSL/TSL
From address: (Address does exist)
Authentication method: plain text (I tried also all ather options)
Server address: mail.mnet-online.de:587
Credentials (are correct)
The server does not allow unsecure connections, so I cannot try without SSL/TLS. This server configuration works in all other places I use (Thunderbird, Outlook, Synology DSM, iOS Mail).
My config.php:
<?php
$CONFIG = array (
'htaccess.RewriteBase' => '/',
'memcache.local' => '\\OC\\Memcache\\APCu',
'apps_paths' =>

Many thanks to whoever bothers to look at this…
