Googling for that error message yields many hits that look as if they
might be helpful.

TLDR:
You: domain.com
Them: smtp.domain.com
Rails uses: domain.com
Rails says: domain.com does not match SSL certificate, actually
matches smtp.domain.com.
Solution: Use smtp.domain.com or setup your own smtp server with your
own SSL certificate.

It looks to me like you're using your domain name when your isp does
not have a certificate for your domain on their mail server, what I am
saying is that it's perfectly fine to use domain.com but your ISP
probably has smtp.provider.com and you should opt to use
smtp.provider.com instead of domain.com because it will cause mismatch
domain errors unless you setup your own server and get your own SSL
certificate (this is because most ISP's will not put your certificate
on their mail servers it's just too much trouble.)
