HI , First you need to decide how you want to send emails from a rails app or what options are available.
1. Sendmail : Its a program or application which handles mail delivery. 2. SMPT Server: Either you can set up your own or use third party service like (gmail/yahoo etc) Check this link : http://railstutor.org/projects/1/wiki/Actionmailer Answering to second part of your question, what i understood is you wan to test how an email looks when it is actually sent out in other words you wan to test the same. Check on CREATE_ and DELIVER_ methods of actionmailer. regards, Bharath On May 21, 3:43 pm, radu puspana <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi guys, a noob in rails here > > I did some searching on the net about how to send email to diffrent > domain adresses like google, yahoo and stuff..and the guides that i > found were a bit more confusing. > > for example at this adresshttp://guides.rails.info/action_mailer_basics.html > the last two examples Action Mailer Configuration, Action Mailer > Configuration for GMail > > The thing is that they are so diffrent...and if i wanna send mails to > yahoo, or hotmail or whatever, what should i do? > > but before al this, if i wanna send a small mail on my mac, just to > see how this action mailer stuff works, is there something i should > change in my app? > > a million thx in advance, > radu > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group. > To post to this group, send email to [email protected]. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > [email protected]. > For more options, visit this group > athttp://groups.google.com/group/rubyonrails-talk?hl=en. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
