Hi, The issue there is that you are already using the port 2025 for something else (maybe another instance of the same image?) Try running docker ps to see what you have running. ---

Not sure if this helps, but I’m using [DDEV](https://github.com/drud/ddev) for local Mautic development. It includes PHP/MySQL/PHPMyAdmin/Mailhog out of the box with Docker images (see “[Email Capture and Review](https://ddev.readthedocs.io/en/stable/users/developer-tools/#email-capture-and-review)” for details on the Mailhog integration). Makes it a breeze to get things set up properly. 🙂 You can read more about using Mautic in DDEV here: [https://www.mautic.org/blog/developer/local-mautic-development-with-ddev](https://www.mautic.org/blog/developer/local-mautic-development-with-ddev) ---

Try `ddev describe` ([https://ddev.readthedocs.io/en/latest/users/cli-usage/#partial-bundled-tools-list](https://ddev.readthedocs.io/en/latest/users/cli-usage/#partial-bundled-tools-list)) and it will show you how to access Mailhog 🙂 ---

Apparently HTTPS doesn’t work in your case. Try with `http://` instead of `https://`. For local development you don’t really need HTTPS (as it’s not publicly available in any way), but if you still want to fix HTTPS, you might want to try to run the command `mkcert -install` again. But if you can’t fix it easily, it might be a lot of work to get it working properly, so it’s probably easier to just use `http://` for now. 🙂 ---

Ensure that when opening the email you do so in an incognito window. Opens from a browser where you have a session logged into Mautic will not be tracked by default. ---
