Config for dev environment: config/environments/development.rb

Here is a typical configuration that sends mail via Google Account.

config.action_mailer.perform_deliveries = false # Set it to true to send the email in dev mode
config.action_mailer.raise_delivery_errors = true
config.action_mailer.delivery_method = :smtp
config.action_mailer.default_url_options = { :host => "localhost:3000" }


ActionMailer::Base.smtp_settings = {
                    :address        => "smtp.gmail.com",
                    :port           => 587,
                    :authentication => :plain,
                    :user_name      => "[email protected]",
                    :password       => "password"
}

Usually in Rails 2 you put those settings in config/environments/*.rb. Because your development settings will be different from production, etc etc.

So something like:

  config.action_mailer.smtp_settings = {
    :address => "localhost",
    :port => 2525
  }

in the configure block in config/environments/development.rb
