Customize the From address in Rails application
- by palani
Hi ,
I have mailer action in my application, the mailer is configured with gmail smtp. The following is my config details under environment.rb file
require "smtp_tls"
ActionMailer::Base.delivery_method = :smtp
ActionMailer::Base.perform_deliveries = true
ActionMailer::Base.raise_delivery_errors = true
ActionMailer::Base.default_charset = "utf-8"
ActionMailer::Base.default_content_type = "text/html"
ActionMailer::Base.smtp_settings = {
:address => "smtp.gmail.com",
:port => 587,
:domain => 'gmail.com',
:user_name => "info@example.com",
:password => "password",
:authentication => :plain
The think i want to implement is, when ever the application generating email the from address shows "info@example.com".
Is possible to customize the from address. In different places i want to use different From address instead of "info@example.com"
I tried with my mailer model:
@from = "#{user.email}"
In development server log it shows the customized id correctly. if go my email inbox it shows the from address as "info@example.com"
Can any one please guide on this. thanks in advance.
