Paul, Thanks for letting me know that you are able to reset admin password. Now I know it is something with my app.
The email address is correct, and it is not a spam problem. Not sure what is happening, so I am going to try and use ruby-debug for the first time. Not quite sure how this is going to work, since I can't actually send an email from localhost, but perhaps the problem will reveal itself before that. I have re-defined 'request_password_reset in the users controller so I could put a debugger command there. Will be a useful experiment if nothing else. Thanks again, your info really helped by letting me know it is something going on with my app versus a hobo thing.
