I’m a Rails newbie using version 3.1.4 for my Heroku (Cedar stack) app.
I’m trying to figure out why my app is sending blank emails using
Sendgrid, and I haven’t had much success with their support after
raising a
ticket three business days ago, so I’m hoping someone here might be able
to
help (tried searching the net and this group for blank emails, as well
as
posting on Stackoverflow, too).
I’m connecting to Sendgrid OK because the emails are sending…they’re
just
blank (actually in hotmail the body says "This is a multi-part message
in
MIME format…
----." and there’s a small attachment in gmail that has that same text -
in Yahoo mail it’s blank though).
I followed these directions
(Twilio SendGrid | Heroku Dev Center),
so I have:
my initializer/mail.rb
ActionMailer::Base.smtp_settings = { :address =>
‘smtp.sendgrid.net’, :port => ‘587’, :authentication =>
:plain, :user_name => ENV[‘SENDGRID_USERNAME’], :password
=> ENV[‘SENDGRID_PASSWORD’], :domain =>
‘heroku.com’}ActionMailer::Base.delivery_method = :smtp
My mailer (notifier.rb), like this:
class Notifier < ActionMailer::Base
helper :application
default_url_options[:host] = “foo.com”
def registration_confirmation(user)
from ‘Foo [email protected]’
@user = user
subject "Welcome to Foo, #{@user.first_name}!"
recipients "#{@user.first_name} <#{@user.email}>"
sent_on Time.now
end
a text version (registration_confirmation.text.erb and an html
version registration_confirmation.html.erb).
when I check the Heroku logs, it doesn’t report any errors and it
indicates
both views rendered successfully. I have put the who output from the
logs
in this gist: Not Sending via Sendgrid · GitHub
If someone could please help this newbie learn what he’s doing wrong,
that
would be hugely appreciated. Thank you!
