Rails - Feb 2008 - Trying to get ActionMailer set up for the first time

I''ve got "config.action_mailer.delivery_method = :smtp" in my
environment.rb file AND it''s beneath the Rails:: Initializer.run do
|config| line.

At the bottom of the environment.rb file I have:
ActionMailer::Base.delivery_method = :smtp
ActionMailer::Base.smtp_settings = {
   :address => "servername.domain.com",
   :port => 25,
   :domain => "domain.com",
   :authentication => :login,
   :user_name => "login",
   :password => "password"


My order_mailer Controller:
def mail
     from "me-9IKiO1iGCm/QT0dZR+AlfA@public.gmane.org"
     recipients "me-D4qZEMI14/jqlBn2x/YWAg@public.gmane.org"
     subject "New order to review"
end

My order_mailer/mail View:
Hi,
A new order has been entered.  Please review it.


After adding a new order in the order Controller, I have this line near
the bottom of the Create action:
OrderMailer.deliver_mail

After adding an order, the logs reads:
<snip>
Sent mail:
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8
Hi,
A new order has been entered.  Please review it.
<end snip>


But I never receive the email.

In addition to trying to send email to my business account, I tried
sending to my personal account and to a gmail account.  Still no email.
Just for the heck of it, I tried changing the password, and I got a 501
authenication error.  So, I can safely say that it''s definitely getting
to the smtp server.  I''m not sure how else to troubleshoot this.  Any
suggestions?

Hi,

Try adding these to your environment.rb

ActionMailer::Base.perform_deliveries = true
ActionMailer::Base.raise_delivery_errors = true
ActionMailer::Base.default_charset = "utf-8"

Also check the port for your mail settings.

I added those and tried tweaking this and that (again!), but nothing is 
different.  I still see the email in the log, but it never arrives in an 
inbox.  Any other thoughts?

Are you sure your port number is correct. If you are using gmail, then
the port should be 587.
Check for the port number.

Else try to get the mail on a different domain name like gmail and
all.

Thanks.  I didn''t realize that.  I know that port is correct for my 
personal account, but I didn''t change it for the google account.

you might want to look at this link about gmail specifically and
ActionMailer, since it sounds like your using gmail.

Thanks for the advice, everyone.

I ended up deleting everything and then recreating it.  And it worked 
perfectly.
