Thanks, this was a little bit tricky, as all the example code was already inside the init block!

Wow! I can’t tell you how many tips and instructions, and how-to’s I have looked at never to find the place I should be putting the code… thanks a bunch!

Huge help on that hint, would have taken me a while to realize. You are indeed the first google hit.

Here it is 2009, I have just finished reading the 2008 edition of the “Rails Way”, and and Obie has devoted a whole 8 lines the the Actionmailer::Base.smtp_settings without once mentioning WHERE IN THE environment.rb file they are to be placed!

The lack of these kinds of details in the documentation have driven me to commit suicide by jumping out of the window 17 times in the last month. Thank God I live and work in a basement apartment.

Most the the time I think Rails is insanely brilliantly, but there are times when I think it it just plain insane.

Thank you Andrew.

Thanks for the tip. This worked a treat.

For some reason – having the directive in the block was working on an Apache fcgi server, but upon migrating to Mongrel I got this error.

ok – in case anyone out there is a complete idiot like me – notice the instructions say to place the code following the config BLOCK. I was putting the code after the LINE, not the BLOCK. Whew – 24 hours later and I’m back in business!
