Rails - Dec 2011 - Errno::ECONNREFUSED (Connection refused - connect(2)): sending email in production

I don''t know how to get more info about this issue on my remote server
( Linux/Debian6 - Qmail)

localhost testing is fine
, so my class UserMailer < ActionMailer::Base is rendering correctly
the email ( checked in the development log)

now, testing the remote SMTP server ,  via  the production console,
using :
 ActionMailer::Base.smtp_settings =  {:address  =>
"mail.mydomain.com",:port  => 587,:domain  =>
"mydomain.com",:authentication =>  :login, :user_name =>
"myself-3Q2Tfjf0mexWk0Htik3J/w@public.gmane.org",:password =>
"xxxxxxxxxxxx",:enable_starttls_auto => false}

class MyMailer < ActionMailer::Base
def test_email
@recipients = "myself-BUHhN+a2lJ4@public.gmane.org"
@from = "noreply-3Q2Tfjf0mexWk0Htik3J/w@public.gmane.org"
@subject = "this is a subject"
@body = "this is the body"
end
end
>> MyMailer::deliver_test_email        is delivering fine this test email
 I used these smtp_settings, in  a specific initializer file  :
config/initializers/mail.rb
but then I get the Errno::ECONNREFUSED in production log, right after
the email rendering ...

how can I check what''s wrong  ?  the production log doesn''t
give me
enough info  ...

thanks for your feedback .. I''m lost in translation ...

[SOLVED] but don''t know why ...
I changed    :address  =>  "mail.mydomain.com"    to  :address 
=>
"localhost"  and it''s now correctly sending the email...
but why the :address  =>  "mail.mydomain.com"  was running fine in
the
rails console ?? and not when the app is running ?
any clue ?

erwin
