class EmailerController < ApplicationController
  def sendmail

      recipient = params[:email][:recipient]
      subject = params[:email][:subject]

How are you providing sasl_auth support in this setup?  GMail requires
it for smtp use.

I usually setup my actual smtp server for use with GMail, something
like this for example:
