I have tried everything I can think of. I have tried with all authentication types I can think of.
here are my settings
delivery_method :smtp, {
:address => "xxxxxxxxx.com",
:port => port,
:domain => 'xxxxxx.com',
:user_name => 'username',
:password => "passworde",
:authentication => 'plain',
:enable_starttls_auto => true }
here is my error if I use port 25 (I believe this to be the correct port)
c:/Ruby193/lib/ruby/1.9.1/net/smtp.rb:960:in `check_auth_response': 504 5.7.4 Unrecognized authentication type (Net::SMTPAuthenticationError)
here is my error if I use port 587
c:/Ruby193/lib/ruby/1.9.1/openssl/ssl-internal.rb:121:in `post_connection_check': hostname does not match the server certificate (OpenSSL::SSL::SSLError)
The hash you're passing should have :plain defined as a symbol rather than a string per the ActionMailer::Base docs. The server is definitely responding on port 25 (that 504 5.7.4 Unrecognized authentication type error is from the server) so stick with that port.
It's also probably that plain auth is disabled on your server. Check out Cannot get ActionMailer working with MS Exchange via SMTP for more info.

I am in need of a script which automatically sends particular data from my corporate webmail email id .
Till now I am able to send automatic emails from a gmail id. But Iam unable to configure it for my webmail id.
Please let me know if any configuration changes are needed or I need to setup a server for this.(if possible also help me how to configure the server)
This is the Ruby function which I am using
def send_mail(to_recepient,data,mailSubject,extraBodyText,sender_info)
options = { :address => "smtp.gmail.com",
:port => 587,
:domain => 'mail.gmail.com',
:user_name => sender_info[:senderName],
:password => sender_info[:senderPassword],
:authentication => 'plain',
:enable_starttls_auto => true }
Mail.defaults do
delivery_method :smtp, options
end
Mail.deliver do
to "#{to_recepient}"
from 'mailtest20152#gmail.com'
subject mailSubject
body stringData
fh=File.open('attachment_file',"w")
fh.puts data
add_file :filename => 'attachment_file', :content => data
end
File.unlink('attachment_file')
end
I faced similar problem. You can configure mailer for particular smtp server like this:
options = { :address => "smtp.yourdomain.com", #address can differ
:port => 25 }
Don't forget to add:
config.action_mailer.delivery_method = :smtp
Don't need to provide password and username, but remember to specify from field in your email message (as you already did).
I am building my first portfolio page with Sinatra.
I have a 'textbook' contact page with a straight-forward form containing 'name', 'email' and 'content' fields. When someone submits the form, I want to recieve an email notification.
Pony claims that it can send email via simple 'one-line' of code. I have read the Pony documentation but it is not very detailed in how to set it up.
I don't know if I am not setting it up properly, the code is not right, Pony is not the best tool, or if my development environment is not allowing the mail to be sent.
The code below is supposed to be sending an email from the post method, it is then saving the data to a PostgreSQL database via the save_message method. The data is being persisted correctly.
#server.rb
require 'sinatra'
require 'pony'
require_relative 'model/methods'
get '/contact' do
erb :contact
end
post '/thankyou' do
unless params[:name] == '' || params[:email] == '' || params[:content] == ''
Pony.options = {
:subject => "Portfolio page: Message delivery from #{params[:name]}",
:body => "#{params[:content]}",
:via => :smtp,
:via_options => {
:address => 'smtp.1and1.com',
:port => '587',
:enable_starttls_auto => true,
:user_name => ENV["USER_EMAIL_ADDRESS"],
:password => ENV["SMTP_PASSWORD"],
:authentication => :login,
:domain => 'nterrafranca.com'
}
}
Pony.mail(:to => ENV["DESTINATION_EMAIL_ADDRESS"])
save_message(params[:name], params[:email], params[:content])
end
redirect '/'
end
Pony needs to know how to send the email, not just who it's to, from, what the subject and body are, etc.
From the pony documentation, it will default to use sendmail, otherwise configures SMTP to use localhost. Depending on where this application is running, it's highly likely that sendmail is not available, and that there is no SMTP configured on localhost.
I've used Pony for several applications. Each one, I configure a "noreply#" email address for Pony to use to authenticate for SMTP, therefore using my own domain email (usually Google Apps, or even Gmail) for my SMTP connection. For example:
Pony.options = {
:subject => "Some Subject",
:body => "This is the body.",
:via => :smtp,
:via_options => {
:address => 'smtp.gmail.com',
:port => '587',
:enable_starttls_auto => true,
:user_name => 'noreply#cdubs-awesome-domain.com',
:password => ENV["SMTP_PASSWORD"],
:authentication => :plain, # :plain, :login, :cram_md5, no auth by default
:domain => "localhost.localdomain"
}
}
In the case of a Sinatra app, I perform the exact above code (with the obvious substitutions) right before I call:
Pony.mail(:to => <some_email>)
I've configured Pony multiple times - comment if you still have issues and I'll be glad to help.
If you are using a gmail account with 2-step verification, you must generate an application specific password for the Pony mailer, and NOT use your usual SMTP password.
See https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/185833?hl=en
Insert the application specific password in the place of your usual password.
This is from the Pony project page on Github.
I can't seem to get email for password recovery using devise to work on my openshift app. I'm using Rails 4.0.2 and Ruby 1.9.3. I've tried the following in production.rb :
config.action_mailer.default_url_options = { :host => 'mydomain.com' }
config.action_mailer.delivery_method = :smtp
config.action_mailer.smtp_settings = {
:port => 25,
:address => 'smtp.mailgun.org',
:user_name => 'postmaster#domain.com',
:password => '[password]',
:domain => 'mydomain.com.mailgun.domain',
:authentication => :plain,
}
I've also done settings required for google use and both worked fine in development on local. Also tried ports 465, 587, as described here. Sending mail unfortunately still isn't performed on production. The app just throws an error with nothing in the logs.
I am reading documents regarding NET::LDAP with TLS. But I could not find any mentioning regarding enforcing certificate validation with start_tls. The sample code is attached below.
ldap = Net::LDAP.new :host => params["host"],
:base => params["base_dn"],
:encryption => :start_tls,
:port => params["port"],
:auth => { :username => params["bind_dn"],
:password => params["bind_pw"],
:method => :simple
}
The document here "http://net-ldap.rubyforge.org/Net/LDAP.html#method-i-encryption" mentions there is no SSL certificate validation for simple_tls. But there is no information regarding start_tls.
no, I checked the latest 0.6.1 version, this functionality is still missing.
simple_tls is actually LDAPS which usually on port 636.
I'm trying to send emails via sendmail in Padrino. I did the configuration specified here (Configuration and Quick Usage)
But I always get the following error in the server log (on Heroku or localhost):
app[web.1]: sh: Illegal option -
app[web.1]: Errno::EPIPE - Broken pipe:
I installed the mail gem and I'm using Padrino 0.10.7
I'm using this, to send the email:
post :create do
email(:from => "tony#reyes.com", :to => "john#smith.com", :subject => "Welcome!", :body=>"Body")
end
That's practically all I have...
You should be using one of the parter addons for sending mail with Heroku.
A good option is Sendgrid
heroku addons:add sendgrid:starter --app=your_app_name
Then in your Padrino app in app.rb inside your App class:
set :delivery_method, :smtp => {
:address => "smtp.sendgrid.net",
:port => 587,
:domain => 'heroku.com',
:user_name => ENV['SENDGRID_USERNAME'],
:password => ENV['SENDGRID_PASSWORD'],
:authentication => :plain,
:enable_starttls_auto => true
}
You could substitute these for settings for another external SMTP server, or look at Mandrill for transactional emails.
I suspect the Errno::EPIPE error you were seeing was that it could not connect to a valid SMTP server, so your controller code should be fine as it is.
Pat is right, you don't need an add-on, just configure your app.rb like stef suggests and you're good to go. So, for example, we use gmail and our config looks something like this:
set :delivery_method, :smtp => {
:address => "smtp.domain.com",
:port => 587,
:domain => 'rails.domain.com',
:user_name => "rails#domain.com",
:password => "super-secret",
:authentication => "plain",
:enable_starttls_auto => true,
:openssl_verify_mode => OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE
}
