I have rails space application running on my local.
I have issues in sending emails on my application.
I have configured my environment.rb as follows :
config.action_mailer.raise_delivery_errors = true
config.action_mailer.default_charset = “utf-8”
ActionMailer::Base.smtp_settings = {:address
=>“smtp.mail.yahoo.co.in”,
:port => 587,
:domain => “yahoo.com”,
:authentication => :login,
:user_name => "*@yahoo.com",
:password => ''}
But when I run the application I am getting the following error : -
Errno::EBADF (Bad file descriptor - connect(2)):

That errors is due to a timeout experienced by ActionMailer trying to
connect to the smtp server. ActionMailer doesnt’ work with SSL/TLS
authentication. Read this link for more information.

Well windows + firewall is a bad combination. You can try to deploy your
project in a clean environment or find a solution to your "
execution expired" error via google.

That is almost certainly the wrong setting for :domain. That is the
domain used in the helo or ehlo command, and it is supposed to be the
domain name associated with your computer. Claiming to be yahoo.com

Email Senders in distress,
"getaddrinfo: no address associated with hostname. "
Likely now ruby/smtp is trying to do a DNS lookup on the domain you
provided. So if you made a hostname that actual does not resolve to
anything it will get upset. The simplest thing to do is add the new
domain to your “hosts” file. Which in Windows is in this directory
within “system32” /drivers/etc/hosts. Add a line for you computer/
domain name:
example:
192.168.1.2 nicedell.localhost
But this is just the start of your problems. Getting the email to
yahoo’s SMTP servers is about as far as the email will get. Yahoo is
going to be VERY,VERY strict about allowing you to send email from a
random computer it’s never received email from. Secondly, your actual
IP address at your gateway is what Yahoo will see as the sending
source IP and this won’t match your envelope nor match the sending
domain. All of this headache is for defending against SPAM bots and
the like.
