Register for the free account on sendgrid.com and use their port 587.
Any chance you wouldn't mind walking me through how to set up Lemmy to do that? Any guide or reference would be appreciated.
There is a script called lemmy easy deploy.

You would setup the free plan for sendgrid.com
Their server setting are an ID, password, servernane and port you would put in the config file.

The dev for lemmy-easy-deploy has already said that they do not support SMTP now and will not going forward... So I didn't spend any more time with that.
I think what they meant by that statement is its not configured to setup postfix as an email server. When you edit the config file (prior to runnig the docker command to build it) youre setting lemmy up to use an external email service.
Ah, thank you for that clarification. That makes sense now.
