I want to send acknowledge mail to a particular mail using mailman server. I tried many times to do that. But I did not get any solutions. Please advise me to do the thing.
This is very simple:
I like to have an initializer for handle this, like so:
config/initializers/setup_email.rb
if Rails.env.production?
ActionMailer::Base.smtp_settings = {
:user_name => ENV['SENDGRID_USERNAME'],
:password => ENV['SENDGRID_PASSWORD'],
:domain => ENV['SENDGRID_DOMAIN'],
:address => "smtp.sendgrid.net",
:port => 587,
:authentication => :plain,
:enable_starttls_auto => true
}
end
And then for the production and development environments you have to do something like so:
config/environments/production.rb
config.action_mailer.default_url_options = { host: "http://www.example.com" }
config.action_mailer.asset_host = "http://www.example.com"
As for the development environment I recommend you install the mailcatcher gem:
$ gem install mailcatcher
Once is installed, run the mailcatcher command:
$ mailcatcher
This will enable a web page on http://127.0.0.1:1080
to where every email will be send and you'll be able to preview them. Just make sure your have the following configuration
config/environments/development.rb
config.action_mailer.default_url_options = { host: "localhost:3000" }
config.action_mailer.asset_host = "http://localhost:3000"
#mailcatcher configs
config.action_mailer.delivery_method = :smtp
config.action_mailer.smtp_settings = { :address => "localhost", :port => 1025 }
Then you should be fine!
