Hi,
I couldnt access the plugin URL.
Can you send it to me?
Is it the same plugin as this:
http://www.stephe...

Tks

Douglas F Shearer

Looks like Kyle's site is down, I shall email you the plugin.

This plugin is a new one that does the same thing as the one you link to, but is almost 2 years newer and Rails 2.0 compatible.

jesse

Hey,
could you be so kind and mail it to me also?

Thanks in advance ;-)

Mike

Any chance I could get in on that e-mail? I'd really appreciate it.

Douglas F Shearer

This plugin is now hosted on my SVN until Kyle's site reappears.

Thanks.

Alan

Thanks for this! Saved me a lot of time and effort.

Mark S

Good lad, well done ;-)

Calvin C

Rocks.
Quick and easy plugin installation and implementation.
Thanks for hosting it.

Miguel C

Thanks.

It works when sending e-mails to gmail accounts.

But e-mails sent to hotmail accounts will not even reach the spam box.

Is it a wrong setting?
Is it that hotmail discards every mail send via gmail smtp relay?

If that is the case, this mailer setup cannot be used in production mode.

Carl

I've been trying to get something like this working since I use Google Apps for about 5 hours and nothing quite worked until now. Thank you big time!

Burt

There is a change in ruby 1.8.7 that breaks this app.

The symptom is an error like "(wrong number of arguments (3 for 2))" when sending a mail via tls.

The quick fix until the authors make a permenant fix is to remove authtype from the call to check_auth_args on line 33 of action_mailer_optional_tls/lib/smtp_tls.rb

see: http://www.redmin...

Sean Ouimet

Thanks for this! Big help!

Taurus

Thanks for the plugin - great work! One quick question. I'm able to get actionmailer to send via gmail from the console - but not from the app itself. Very odd - is there some sort of port or file owner difference I need to account for?

Bob

I have followed the steps for this blog, and now instead of (3 for 2)

it gives me (7 for 6)?

any advice?

thank you in advance

Roman

Nice work. Thanks!

Mike Bradford

Great plugin. Thanks for your work.

Chris Koehler

You're the man, thanks a lot! It works perfect.

Hi,

for rails 2.0.2 I was getting 'Uninitialized constant ActionMailer' at load time using the following:

ActionMailer::Base.smtp_settings = {
:tls => true,
:address => "smtp.gmail.com",
:port => "587",
:domain => "YOURDOMAIN",
:authentication => :plain,
:user_name => "GOOGLEUSERNAME",
:password => "GOOGLEPASSWORD"
}

I changed this over to use the config_action_mailer as follows.

config.action_mailer.smtp_settings = {
:address=>"zimbra.evri.com",
:port=>25,
:user_name => "analytics-consume...",
:password => "@p3vr1",
:authentication => :login

}

thanks to this link: http://blog.9elem...

Aditya Raj

Thanks for your efforts on sharing this important information and taking efforts of hosting the plugin on your repository.

Great Man.. You saved me a lot of my time.
Installing the plugin worked like a magic.

GreenAsJade

Dumb question, sorry :S

What is supposed to go in "YOURDOMAIN"?

What is the meaning of this "domain"?

Douglas F Shearer

YOURDOMAIN would be the address at which the rails app is hosted.

GreenAsJade

Thanks for the fast answer.

In parallel I tried it without specifying the domain, and it worked like a charm!

Thanks!!!!

so... what is the domain used for?

Douglas F Shearer

Looking at the documentation, and digging into some mail server stuff; the domain is used for the HELO SMTP command, as used by some older mail servers.

So probably not entirely necessary as you have shown. Glad to have been of help.

Rob Britton

I got the same "(wrong number of arguments (3 for 2))" error, fixing it is easy though.

Go to line 33 of lib/smtp_tls.rb in the plugin folder and change
check_auth_args user, secret, authtype if user or secret
to
check_auth_args user, secret if user or secret

This works, however it might be good to have the check in there too. So add this after that line:
check_auth_method authtype

Steve Enzer

I'm unable to get this working with gmail, ubuntu, rails 2.1.2 and ruby 1.8.7, this looks similar to a glitch that occurred before, but I couldn't fix it using the fix that had worked before.

wrong number of arguments (2 for 1)

JACoulter

Yet another thank you - got me up and running in no time after spending hours trying to track down the plug-in. FYI, I'm running Ruby 1.8.6 and Rails 2.2.2 and did not need to change anything - worked as advertised out of the box.

Chris Luebcke

Let me add my thanks. The fact that this comment thread is still active 14 months after the original post shows what a need there is for this.

Douglas F Shearer

Rails 2.3 released this week doesn't need all this stuff, I'll write a post for what it does need, and put a warning at the top of this one.

Updates?

Hi, do you mean Rails 2.3 means we don't need this plugin? What if we stay on ruby 1.8.6?

TF

Hi, installed the plugin and got this error...?

530 5.7.0 Must issue a STARTTLS command first.

Douglas F Shearer

Rails 2.3 apparently has support for TLS out of the box, but unfortunately there was no documentation for this when I last looked.

1.8.6 and 1.8.7 work great with this plugin. I have not had the chance to test 1.9 with it yet.

TF - What Rails version are you running?

somebody

Many thanks! Works for me.
I am using Ruby 1.8.6 and Rails 2.3.2

somebody

@TF: Are you sure you set the :tls => true, in the settings? I missed it the first time and got same error as you.

By the way, I am using Rails 2.3.2 and i find I still need to use this plugin. It does not work otherwise.

Ales

I am getting the following error:

wrong number of arguments (7 for 6)

vendor/plugins/action_mailer_optional_tls/lib/action_mailer_tls.rb:10:in `start'

I'm running Ruby 1.8.7 and Rails 2.2.2. I removing the 'authtype' argument from line 33 of lib/smtp_tls.rb, but I still get the same error. Help??

Lisan

Hi!

Just installed new version of Redmine (0.8.3) and Rails 2.2.2 (Ruby is still 1.8.6)

Redmine is working up to point i'm trying to install this plugin, after that it failed to launch with "502 Proxy Error":
----
The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.
The proxy server could not handle the request GET /redmine/settings/edit.
Reason: Error reading from remote server
----

If i just remove plugin folder, redmine start working again. Can you help?

Lisan

I solved problem above by installing version 2.1.2 of actionmailer. But smtp vial gmail still don't work for me. :( Now it's "error: execution epired" on the attempt to send test email from Redmine. I'm behind firewall, but port 587 is accessable via telnet, so it shouldn't be a problem...

Sid

it took me hours to find the correct way to do this.. and your link worked in 30 secs.. really awesome.. thanks so much

lee

i'm a asp.net web developer assigned to install redmine (v. 0.8.2) on a windows 2003 server. i have it up and running using the bitnami installer. i'm running into some issues getting the emailer to work.

i've changed the email.yml and need to install the action_mailer_tls. i've tried running a ".script/plugin" but it doesn't find my install path. can you be more specific like what is the proper redmine root directory? mine is installed at 'c:\program files\bitnami redmine stack".

thanks.

Ivan

I'm using Ruby 1.8.7 and Rails 2.3 and the configuration below worked just fine without any plugin.

Write the code below in your config/environment.erb file and be happy.

config.action_mailer.delivery_method = :smtp
config.action_mailer.smtp_settings = {
:enable_starttls_auto => :true,
:address => "smtp.gmail.com",
:port => 587,
:domain => "mysite.com.br",
:authentication => :plain,
:user_name => "myaddress@mysite....",
:password => "xxxxxxx",
:tls => :true
}
config.action_mailer.perform_deliveries = :true
config.action_mailer.raise_delivery_errors = :true
config.action_mailer.default_charset = "utf-8"

Best regards.

Douglas F Shearer

Thanks for the feedback guys! Good to know the that TLS Optional support was included in 2.3 as expected. I'll update the post to reflect this soon.

RP

How can I make this to work on rails 2.3.2 with both ruby 1.8.6 and 1.8.7?

I'm using basically the same settings as Ivan, without any plugins, and it works on my production machine running ruby 1.8.7, but it doesn't work on my development machine which runs 1.8.6.

If I install this plugin and set :tls => true, then it works on 1.8.6, but it stops working on 1.8.7. What's the best way to be able to make it run on both?

Thanks.

Ori

thanks for this plugin, really helpful

yann

Hi,
I've downloaded Bitnami Redmine for windows, install everything, try to configure my smtp with you solution, and unfortunatly, after that i am not able to acces my server anymore. Do you know this problem, do you know a fix (or a wawy to go back on you solution) ?

FYI, My server error is :

The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.
The proxy server could not handle the request GET /redmine.
Reason: Error reading from remote server

regards,

Yann

Orlando

Thank! for this great plugin it was not working at the beggining because I was using Ruby 1.8.7 but I followed the folloing link: http://filipteppe... and that fixed the problem I think it could be nice to add that as a note at the beginning so people can check the Ruby version first. THANKS AGAIN!!!
