Error sending confirmation email

[lindapaiste]

p5.js version

No response

What is your operating system?

None

Web browser and version

No response

Actual Behavior

The UI appears as though the email has been sent and shows the message:

Unconfirmed. Confirmation sent, check your email.

But looking at the dev tools shows that the API request to https://editor.p5js.org/editor/verify/send was actually a 500 internal server error with response:

{
    "error": "Error sending mail"
}

That comes from this line of code:

p5.js-web-editor/server/controllers/user.controller.js

Line 248 in 4161f98

res.status(500).send({ error: 'Error sending mail' });

Expected Behavior

I expect the email to be sent.

Steps to reproduce

Steps:

1. go to https://editor.p5js.org/account
2. click "resend confirmation email" button
