sending mail in rails from tutorial - outdated?
- by Stacia
I'm trying to use this tutorial (http://www.tutorialspoint.com/ruby-on-rails-2.1/rails-send-emails.htm) to send mail on rails, but nothing seems to happen. I have ActionMailer::Base.delivery_method = :sendmail in my environment.rb. It's possible the tutorial may be out of date for the more recent version of rails? If so can someone tell me where it goes wrong or a link to another tutorial. I see this in the log. It's a little supsicious that the "to" has subject and stuff appended to it, but I don't know where it went wrong.

Hi!
You are having one email message from [email protected] with a title
This is title
and following is the message:
Thanks
edit: I manually changed "recipient" to my mail address and I still don't get mail, even though the problem in the log with all of the things stuck together is fixed.
