email delivery over external server

[Markus Pfaffinger]

Hello,

I just set up an new jobsworth installation (v3.1) and now ran into the problem, that the app don't send emails over the configured smtp server (config/environment.local.rb). The emails are always send over the local installed sendmail instance. I also tried to add the action_mailer config to config/environments/production.rb and set the delivery_method to :smtp, but nothing fixed the issue.

Thanks in advance for your support and suggestions.

Are you sure you are using the 3.1 version? In master branch,
environment.local.rb is deprecated and replaced with application.yml.

I cloned the repo and checked out a new branch from the v3.1 tag, so I am quite sure to use this version. The README.rdoc also says to configure the Mailer through environment.local.rb.

I now tried to use the gmail server and this one is used correctly. Are the settings for address, port and domain enough or are there some more needed. I use an internal mail server which accept all messages for the local domains.

I fixed the issue...I just added the enable_starttls_auto line and set the delivery_method to smtp and now it works.

Thanks for your support.
