Jenny,
towards the bottom of the wiki you reference there is a section titled
"Gmail SMTP". Did you do this part?
The instructions tell you to put the config in init.rb. I put it in
production.rb and use the before_app_loads hook instead of the after
hook as the docs show. Then in development.rb and test.rb, I change
the config to use test mode. See below:
1 - production.rb
Merb::BootLoader.before_app_loads do
# Activate SSL Support
Net::SMTP.enable_tls(OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE)
# Configure Merb Mailer
Merb::Mailer.config = {
:host => 'smtp.gmail.com',
:port => '587',
:user => '[email protected]',
:pass => 'pass',
:auth => :plain
}
end
2 - development.rb and test.rb
Merb::BootLoader.before_app_loads do
Merb::Mailer.delivery_method = :test_send
end
