I'm having problems actually sending via ActionMailer in development, on my localhost, with Rails 2.3.2 and Ruby 1.8.6. The development.log shows that it has "sent" the email with no errors, but the email is not received. I have tried multiple email addresses for sending and receiving and have tried multiple configs and plugins, but cann...
I've been working on learning to use Rails the last couple days and I've run into something that I haven't been able to solve with Google. So I'm just creating a basic contact form that sends an email. Everything seems to be working ok in testing, which tells me that the form is working, and ActionMailer was implemented correctly, howev...

I want to add the capability to send an attachment with these emails. I have no problem getting a set attachment from my HD to send, but clearly I need to allow users to add an att...
I'm having a little trouble understanding how the files inside the intializers folder is used. Are all the files within this directory loaded automatically? Or do we need to specify which ones in some location? The above question came into play because I wanted to setup action mailer. I created a file called smtp_gmail.rb inside this fo...

What's the best way to send quick one-liner e-mails to an administrative address in Rails? I am using the Rails Logger to keep track of nasty problems in my application.

When projects get large, I imagine you might start having 100s of mailer templates: user_signup_confirmation.html.erb user_signup_failure.html.erb user_account_activation.html.erb user_account_cancelation.html.erb ... What is your workflow for handling this? Do you have them email you what they want and then you mold it into a metho...
I think this may be a common situation… I'm working on a password recovery system for a Rails app that sends a link to the user to trigger a new password form. Pretty standard stuff. On my development server I don't have any mail-sending software enabled or configured (sendmail, SMTP settings, etc.) In config/environments/development.rb...

I am trying to send an email to multiple users. I have a model that sends @users, which has all of the users I am going to be mailing... now when in the User_mailer I am having trouble figuring out how to tell the mail_out process to send to each of the users (set each recipient the user.email). To summarize, I want to set a cron job to ...
I'm using ActionMailer to send a sign up confirmation email. The email needs to contain a link back to the site to verify the user, but I can't persuade Rails to generate a full URL (including the domain etc). I'm using: <%= url_for :controller => 'login', :action => 'verify', :guid => @user.new_user.guid, :only_path => false, :host =...

I am building a comment notification system in Rails and I am trying to render user provided comments in a plain text email. When I render the comment, I want to auto wrap the lines when 56 characters are reached. Obviously I don't want to split words. Is there a function in Ruby or RoR for doing this, or do I need to roll my own? Qu...
Hey, I'm using Rails 2.3.5 and using rufus scheduler to send periodic emails. This works fine in development mode, but surprise surprise production mode has borked something. I've set the same actionmailer settings in both development and production files. Is there something I am missing? ...
Am I crazy, or is it a bad idea to keep my SMTP username and password for ActionMailer in the actual (development/production) config file? It seems like I should store it an encrypted place, or at the very minimum, exclude it from my Mercurial pushes. Right now, I'm just removing the password from my source file before performing a push...
Hi everybody, I have to send automatic emails with Return Receipt (aka "acknowledgement of receipt"), to have the confirmation that the receiver have actually received and read the email. The confirmation is a simple email sent to a specified address (the "Disposition-Notification-To" address, given in the email header). Do you know if...
