Mail sending

Rails
1

Hi,

i was hoping someone could reference me to some good documentation on
emails in ruby and emails in general. i am in the end-process of
building an app with a newsletter application in it, and was hoping to
get some references on good places to start off with - - not just in
rails/actionmailer, but email/smtp/sendmail/whatever/protocols when to
use what, what’s best to use when, whatever needs to be learned from a
to z.
are there any good docs out there?

much appreciated,

harp

I learnt quite a lot about mail protocols and servers just paging
through
wikipedia starting here:

not an authoritive source but very useful all the same.

is there a way to install/configure sendmail on a windows platform
(rather than the much acclaimed unix systems)?
