Question

In order_mailer.rb:

default from: 'notifications@example.com'

def welcome_email(order)
 @user = "Uday kumar das"
 @url  = 'http://example.com/login'
 mail(to: 'dasudaykumar017@gmail.com', subject: 'Welcome to My Awesome Site')
end

In orders_conroller:

def delivery
 @order1 = Order.where(:orderId=>params[:orderId])
 @order = Order.find(@order1)
 OrderMailer.welcome_email(@order).deliver
end

In environments/development.rb:

config.action_mailer.raise_delivery_errors = true

config.action_mailer.delivery_method = :smtp

I am new to mails in rails.I am referring http://guides.rubyonrails.org/action_mailer_basics.html to learn. I am getting error like:

Net::SMTPAuthenticationError in OrdersController#delivery`

I did the same using my gmail, following are my configurations, try and see it if works

config.action_mailer.default_url_options = { :host => 'localhost:3000' }

ActionMailer::Base.smtp_settings = {

                :address        => "smtp.gmail.com",
                :port           => 587,
                :authentication => :plain,
                :user_name      => "<my gmail>@gmail.com",
                :password       => "<my gmail password>",
                :openssl_verify_mode  => 'none' }

Please note the:

:openssl_verify_mode => 'none'

section to skip the ssl errors
