Em::Smtp

EM-SMTP is a very simple asynchronous delivery implementation for ActionMailer that wraps EventMachine's SMTP Client.

It's extreme lightweight, and suitable for sites that don't need heavy mail delivery and don't want to run another separate process.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'em-smtp'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install em-smtp

Configuration

You must let ActionMailer know that you wish to use em-smtp as your delivery method. Either in your application's config/application.rb file (Rails 3 or latter), or in an environment-specific config file such as config/environments/production.rb:

config.action_mailer.delivery_method = :em_smtp

After that, you may need to change your smtp settings. In config/initializers/em_smtp.rb

ActionMailer::Base.em_smtp_settings = {
  host:     "#{YOUR_SMTP_SERVER}",
  port:     25,                   # change this if needed
  domain:   "#{YOUR_SMTP_DOMAIN}",
  starttls: true                  # change to false if your smtp server didn't support SSL/TLS
  #auth: {                        # don't include this if no auth needed
  #        type:     :plain,
  #        username: "#{YOUR_USERNAME}",
  #        password: "#{YOUR_PASSWORD}"
  #      }
}
