I'm looking through the tutorial: http://wiki.merbivore.com/howto/mailers
using sendmail.
However, I'm a bit confused. When it says:
"def contact
send_mail(ContactMailer, :notify, {
:from => '[email protected]',
:to => "[email protected]",
:subject => "Free gym socks. Used!"
})
"
What would I put in place of '[email protected]'? Does sendmail
somehow assign me a name? Do I have to attach an existing name (such
as a gmail account) to send mail for this to work? Can I just make
something up and put it there? I used an existing gmail account (all I
did was put it there, no associations or anything, which I don't think
is right) and I got the following message (which seems to indicate
that I did things right, according the the tutorial:
merb : worker (port 3000) ~ notify_on_event sent to [email protected]
about =?utf-8?Q?Free_gym_socks._Used!?=
However, no e-mail is showing up at the account I expect it to.
I know I can hook it up into a gmail account by using a different
configuration, but when I tried to do that, it timed out without doing
anything. At least using sendmail it THINKS it's working.
Most tutorials I see on sendmail are php based, so I'm at a bit of a
loss here. If anyone has any tips, or sees anything ridiculously wrong
that I'm doing, let me know?
