ActionMailer Rails : Not able to send emails

I have the following code in my environment/development.rb

 config.action_mailer.raise_delivery_errors = true;
 config.action_mailer.delivery_method = :smtp;
 config.action_mailer.smtp_settings = {
   :address => "smtp.gmail.com",
   :port => 587,
   :user_name => "[email protected]",
   :password => "secret",
   :authentication => :plain,
   :enable_starttls_auto => true,
   :domain => "localhost",
 }

An email is being generated by the call to the mailer model from one of my controllers. However, i am not able to send or receive any emails on gmail.

I am on ruby 1.8.7, rails 2.3.5. There are no exceptions, just that no emails are being exchanged between the actual mail servers.

Being quite new to mailer, sorry for any rookie questions.

Thanks

Above your code you you need to put those lines mandatory for the authentication:

require 'tlsmail'
Net::SMTP.enable_tls(OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE)

You need also the tlsmail gem.

If it doesn't work you can try removing the domain key from you settings.

Are you doing authentication with STARTTLS before sending the mail?
