The error message looks like it's having trouble receiving a response or
connecting to the server. Some ISPs will block port 25 - try seeing if your
mail server is available on a port besides 25.

Hi Adam,

I am using the script as below on windows, i have installed the Tmail using
gem. Following time out error occurs during execution, can you help me with
this.

C:/RUBY/lib/ruby/1.8/timeout.r b:60:in `rbuf_fill': execution expired
(Timeout::Error)
from C:/RUBY/lib/ruby/1.8/net/proto col.rb:132:in `rbuf_fill'

I've used TMail in the past for command line mail scripts.

Pulling together a quick example from the quickstart guide, I'd do something
like:

require 'tmail'

# Example 1: create mail only in memory
mail = TMail::Mail.new

mail.to = '...@d.com'
mail.from = "Test <a...@b.com>'

Hi Shery,

Do you mean Ruby or Rails?

Rails involves using ActionMailer, but if you're working in pure ruby,
you've got a lot more options...
