[5]+ Stopped caddy
It simply fails when putting the email. I am using Ubuntu 18.04 in Digital Ocean.
This has nothing to do with Caddy and everything to do with job control in your Linux shell.
You launched Caddy with &, which sends the process to the background. You haven’t redirected its output, though, so anything it prints is still going to your shell, despite the fact that it’s no longer interactive.
So Caddy is running in the background and you’ve effectively just tried to issue the nonexistent command, example@gmail.com, to your shell.
To keep Caddy interactive, simply don’t launch it into the background (by using caddy instead of caddy &), or bring it back to the foreground with the fg command. Then once you’ve put your email in, you can move it back with CTRL+Z (which will pause it in the background) and then using the bg command (which will resume it in the background).
man bash - specifically the Job Control and Shell Grammar sections man bg man fg
