I did some research before and I was able to make it work. I documented it in my blog for my future reference, you may use this as your reference too:

For Rails 2.3
http://www.ajibanda.com/2012/08/using-g … by-on.html

For Rails 3.2
http://www.ajibanda.com/2012/12/using-g … s-3.2.html

I was able to use gmail for this all my email related process with this codes.

Basically, what I want is something similar to what ndgiang84 has listed above, does it work?

Thanks in advance!

I have these settings in my environment:

ActionMailer::Base.smtp_settings = {
  :address  => "smtp.gmail.com",
  :port     => 587,
  :domain   => "gmail.com",
  :authentication  => :plain,
  #:enable_starttls_auto => true,
  :user_name  => "myemail@gmail.com",
  :password  => "mypassword"
}

but it keeps showing this when I try to send email:

error => execution expired

I have logged in to gmail using above account, it's ok. And my site is now hosted on Bluehost.

Any ideas?

Thanks

action_mailer_tls has a problem with ruby 1.8.7. The code you posted in smtp_tls.rb produces
ArgumentError: wrong number of arguments (3 for 2) from
Line9. check_auth_args user, secret, authtype if user or secret.

You can get fix for this issue by removing authtype parameter from check_auth_args method call

    #check_auth_args user, secret, authtype if user or secret # This is for ruby 1.8.6
    check_auth_args user, secret if user or secret # This is for ruby 1.8.7

Details from http://blog.inspired.no/smtp-error-whil … -rails-271

I've patched ActionMailerTLS so it'll work on 1.8.6 or 1.8.7. You can check it out at http://github.com/hardbap/action_mailer_tls/

*** Please Note ***
If you're on Ruby 1.8.7 and Rails >= 2.2.1 you should be using the built in support.

You can get fix for this issue by removing authtype parameter from check_auth_args method call

    #check_auth_args user, secret, authtype if user or secret # This is for ruby 1.8.6
    check_auth_args user, secret if user or secret # This is for ruby 1.8.7

Did anybody figure this out?
Thanks

My development is on my local machine, and the production is on the slicehost server. Any help would be much appreciated!
