You can test which environment is currently running and not send the
email in development.
See http://apidock.com/rails/Rails/env/class

email delivery?

Hi,

development.rb is environment specific file. It wont work when you run application in production mode. So if you want to have access to single file which you want to run in all the modes, better have the mailer code in environment.rb / application.rb file with environment conditions as said in previous mail.

If you set

config.action_mailer.delivery_method = :test

in development.rb

Then no emails will get send (assuming you don't have something somewhere else (for example in an initializer) that overrides that. A nice development tool is mailcatcher - it runs a fake smtp server for you, you set your app to connect to localhost:1025 in development, eg

config.action_mailer.delivery_method = :smtp

config.action_mailer.smtp_settings =   {:address => "localhost",  :port => 1025}

And all the email your app sends shows up in a web app you can access at localhost:1080

I use https://github.com/pboling/sanitize_email to force all emails to
be sent to one pre-defined email address.

Just do in development.rb config file:

config.action_mailer.perform_deliveries = false

I recommend using the letter opener gem.  it's fantastic for development - check it out:

 Take a look at this Railscast - http://railscasts.com/episodes/61-sending-email-revised

It explains how to use letter_opener.
