I am working on forgot password functionality in my laravel 5.0 application. I am asking user to enter registered email and submit(post method) this form works on jquery ajax post request. After getting email from request i am checking it in db whether it exist or not. if exist i am updating new password, if not sending an error message upto this every this is fine. Now i am trying to send email with new password to the user, it is not working. Password is updating but email not sending.Find my controller code below

public function forgot_pass(Request $request){

$email = $request->input('femail');

$data = ['email' => $email];

$user = Myuser::where($data)->count();

if($user == 0){

return response()->json(['status' => 'Invalid']);

}

else{

$user_details = Myuser::where($data)->get()->first();

$new_pass = $this->generateRandomString();

$md5_pass = md5("EEE".$new_pass);

$status = Myuser::where('email', $email)

->update(['pass' => $md5_pass]);

if($status){

$mail_data = ['name' => $user_details->name, 'new_pass' => $new_pass];

Mail::send('emails.newpassword', $mail_data, function($message)

{

$message->from('[email protected]', 'Laravel');

$message->to($email);

});

return response()->json(['status' => 'Invalid']);

}

}

}

Actually mail is working if i used $message->to('[email protected]'); instead of $message->to($email);. Below is the error i am getting.

Feeling strange why $email causing error.
