hi, i'm new to Rails. just setup an application and every thing looks fine except: cannot send mails out using "sendmail" setting.
worse: there is no error from ActionMailer - deliver_ never complained and I got a message of "successful".
however, the recipient never received any email.
any idea what is going on here?
thank you so much!!!

thanks. that is a nice suggestion. i'm using a shared hosting that has redhat installed. could you help me how to install postfirx there?
really appreciate the quick reply!
If you are using a shared host chances are installing postfix will be impossible. But the shared host should have an SMTP service you could use.. maybe best to ask the host for these details?
can you send out email from a mail client using the smtp service?
