ActionMailer debugging

I'm trying to use Action Mailer in Rails to send email to users. 

def create
  ...
  if @post.save
    UserMailer.archive_confirmation(@site).deliver
  end
end

But when I try it, I don't get any email, and I have no idea how to debug (since the create method runs successfully, and everything else goes as expected, there's no error message) Where could ActionMailer go wrong?

In your respective environment file:

  ## config/environments/development.rb
  config.action_mailer.raise_delivery_errors = true

If I am writing the code to sent the email in controller i can write like these to handle the rescue in my application and i can display the error message that is come in rescue we can display. I'm using something like this in the controller: 

if @user.save
  begin
  UserMailer.welcome_email(@user).deliver
  flash[:success] = "#{@user.name} created"
  rescue Net::SMTPAuthenticationError, Net::SMTPServerBusy, Net::SMTPSyntaxError, Net::SMTPFatalError, Net::SMTPUnknownError => e
  flash[:notice]=e.message   
  end
  redirect_to home_index_path
end

Check your RAILS log, APP_ROOT/log/development.log or APP_ROOT/log/production.log.
