ActionMailer + ISP SMTP

Hi
I’m new here, and pretty much new on the rails.

I’m trying to set up my application to send emails (needed for salted
hash login)
but i keep getting errors.

i’m sure port 25 is not blocked since i’m able to
send mails
through PHP scripts.

my smtp settings in config/enviroment.rb are:

Include your app’s configuration here:

ActionMailer::Base.smtp_settings = {
:address => “smtp.012.net.il”,
:port => 25,
:domain => “localhost”,
:user_name => “USERNAME”,
:password => “PASS”,
:authentication => :login
}

and i also tried with:
:authentication => :plain

and:
without :domain
with :domain => “mydomain.com”,
with :domain => “www.012.net.il”,
without username and password

nothing worked…

i don’t want to use local smtp (like sendmail) because i’m on a
dynamic IP
and other service providers (like walla\gmail) often block mails from
Dyn IP

any help would be most appreciated

Thanks,
Gonen

Use “:authentication => nil” if your ISP does not require authentication
for
SMTP traffic.
