Rails 3 Action Malier renders template and doesn't send emails

It has been asked million times probably but my case is different and I have tried every config option imaginable and tried in production mode as well. The email is rendered but it doesn't appear anywhere. I even bought $15 MockSMPT app to see the emails but nothing goes out it seems.

Here are the configs for MockSMTP:

config.action_mailer.delivery_method = :smtp
ActionMailer::Base.smtp_settings = {
  :address => "localhost",
  :port => 1025,
  :domain => "whatever.com"
}
config.action_mailer.raise_delivery_errors = true
config.action_mailer.perform_deliveries = true

I have tried every delivery_method, :test, :file, I am ripping my hair off, nothing helps:

Rendered contact_mailer/contact_email.html.erb (2.1ms)

And this is it.

Code for sending is trivial:

def contact_email(contact, house=nil)
  @house=house if house
  @contact=contact
  mail(to: contact.email, subject: "#{contact.name} new inquiry")
end

Rails 3.2.8

contact_controller.rb:

def create
  @contact = Contact.new(params[:contact])
  if @contact.valid?
    @house=House.find_by_id(params[:house_id])
    ContactMailer::contact_email @contact, @house
  end
end

You should write:

ContactMailer.contact_email(@contact, @house).deliver

You can read ActionMailer documentation here:

http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionMailer/Base.html

Your statement just creates Mail::Message object, deliver actually sends the email.
