Hi Ken,

Found the culprit! It was the SMTP settings. Here's what I did.

I looked for email timeouts which caused 504 errors. And came across this post (https://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=360614) which had exactly the same problem I descibed.

I removed the perfectly correct SMTP settings (because these same settings work for other email clients) from the Moodle smtp configuration form. Then tested the Assignment Submission and it worked like a charm.

I also installed this plugin "Moodle eMailTest" https://moodle.org/plugins/local_mailtest

And now i realized its not the suphp or suexec. But I still dont know why my smtp settings didnt work here.

Hope this solution helps everyone who are searching for similar issue.

Thanks Ken for all your time and support.
