How do I get Action Mailer to use Hotmail
Hi, How do I get Action Mailer to use my Hotmail, or my GMail account. I will only be using these while testing my app, because when my app is ready I will get a server to host it. I will then be using that server for sending emails. I just want to get Action Mailer working, I don''t mind creating an account on Yahoo, etc.. So if any one can tell me about an email account that just works with Action Mailer, that would be great. Kind regards, Dave. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

I really don''t think you can do that, because you''d need SMTP. Now if there was a pop or imap plugin, maybe that would work for GMail.

I have successfully setup actionmailer with GMail, which gives full pop3/smtp/imap access. Please note that GMail uses TLS for smtp access, though. The Net::SMTP class for ruby 1.8.x doesn''t support tls, however the same class does in ruby 1.9. I''d download smtp.rb from ruby 1.9 and put it in your /lib directory: http://svn.ruby-lang.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/trunk/lib/net/smtp.rb?view=co You also need a Net::POP3 which supports SSL: http://svn.ruby-lang.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/trunk/lib/net/pop.rb?view=co Enter gmail''s POP3/SMTP configuration (available from google) into your actionmailer config, and everything should work.

I also need a solution - you might try the tlsmail gem. I can''t use that, because its cram_md5 is broken.

POP and IMAP are used only for receiving mail -- SMTP is *always* used for sending. Gmail does provide SMTP access, but it''s a bit of a pain to set up with ActionMailer due to its authentication method. What I do on my dev box is just use my ISP''s SMTP server -- much simpler.

You need to patch Net::SMTP to use Gmail. Do a Google search for smtp_tls, download it to your app''s lib directory and setup action mailer to use smtp. The Rails Wiki has a great example of how to setup ActionMailer for SMTP. http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/howtos/mailers On Jun 24, 2:00 pm, Marnen Laibow-Koser <rails-mailing-l...@andreas- s.net> wrote:> kopf1988 wrote: > > I really don''t think you can do that, because you''d need SMTP.
