Re: [Radiant] Radiant Mailer Extension with TLS and gmail
Sorry to send another email before getting a response. Here is something I noticed: When I am on my contact form at /about/contact and I click Send on my form it redirects me to /pages/38/mail#mailer instead of /about/contact/thanks (which is what i defined in the YAML mailer part) Somehow the mailer part of my page isn't working is the only reason I can think.

That's nice but its not your problem.
Your problem is injecting your message into the host mail system.
That you are getting a 504 means you are using :smtp
So, why is :sendmail a problem for you?
Are you really addressing your local machine with this?
If the applciaiton and config/environment.rb are on MACHINE-A and the
reference you have in the mailer setup in
ActionMailer::Base.smtp_settings is MACHINE-B then this could cause
the problem.
You might *THINK* you are addressing the same machine but does the
machines resolver think so?
That is why using :sendmail is so much easier.
Check that sendmail is at /usr/sbin/sendmail and try sending by cat'ing
a file with appropriate headers though it.
ActionMailer::Base.delivery_method = :sendmail
ActionMailer::Base.perform_deliveries = true
If its not at /usr/sbin/sendmail you need to override the base settings,
which are
ActionMailer::Base.sendmail_settings = {
:location = '/usr/sbin/sendmail',

The default mailer for many Linux packages is Postfix, but it has /usr/sbin/sendmail as a link. If you are talking about your own machine running Ubuntu then install the postfix package and/or check the man page. If you are talking about the hosting machine then why not ask them? Its possible they didn't set yup that link or set it up elsewhere. The issue isn't heroku: the issue is can ruby address services on the host machine. Or more specifically, can the code in ActionMailer address services on the host machine. OBTW: what did your logs say when you tried using :sendmail? There is a simple test you can try.

I ended up realizing that the problem had to do with the domain coming
out of the heroku grid. I found that heroku has an addon called
sendgrid which interacts nicely with ActionMailer. Following these
instructions (http://docs.heroku.com/sendgrid) plus a little bit of
settings wrangling and a server restart I got it working!
