CakeEmail Could Not Send Email

I need help guys. I can't get this working. Could you help me?

Thanks in advance!

config/email.php

public $default = array(
        'transport' => 'Mail',
        'from' => '[email protected]',
        'charset' => 'utf-8',
        'headerCharset' => 'utf-8',
);

FeedbacksController.php

App::uses('AppController', 'Controller');
App::uses('CakeEmail', 'Network/Email');
*
*
*
public function send() {
     $email    = new CakeEmail('default');
     $email->emailFormat('text')
           ->to('[email protected]')
           ->from('[email protected]')
           ->send('Message Body');
}

The above code gives me an error:

Could not send email.

Error: An Internal Error Has Occurred.

You can use this : In the app/config/email.php add this new config

public $gmail = array(
    'host' => 'ssl://smtp.gmail.com',
    'port' => 465,
    'username' => '[email protected]',
    'password' => 'secret',
    'transport' => 'Smtp',
    'timeout' => 1
);

After that and in your controller you have to call :

$email    = new CakeEmail('gmail');

That is it.

In my experience ive had issues setting the ->from to a single string, and have found that doing ->from(array('emailaddress' => 'name')) has been more successful.

Also im not sure if setting a subject value is required to work sucessfully?
