Authlogic & ActionMailer

Rails
1

I’m experimenting with Authlogic’s activation tutorial, and in it you
add some code that enables the user to get an email when they create a
new account (containing a link to activate their account).

I’m currently working locally, in a test environment. Should I expect
these emails to actually be sent somehow? If not, then is there a way
to get them to send?

They don’t work right now at all, which is sort of what I expect. I
didn’t configure any SMTP servers or anything.

How, if you didn’t configure SMTP?

They should be printed in test.log.
