Send emails using Google App Engine in rails

Is there any step by step tutorial to send emails using google app engine? I found one gem https://github.com/maccman/remail But it is 4 year old gem and not sure whether it will work.

I don't see very much value in this as AppEngine is not very good nor cheap platform to send emails from.

You get 100 free emails per day and all senders need to be Google Apps accounts. If you need more than that then you need a billable app + special requests to increase quota. The price is 1 USD per 10k emails, which is on par with other SMTP providers.

There are a lot of email sending services with direct HTTP APIs and/or Rails gems: Amazon SES, Sendgrid, Postmark, etc..
