Even delivering email to the local machine may take too long when you have to send hundreds of messages. ar_mailer allows you to store messages into the database for later delivery by a separate process, ar_sendmail.

sudo gem install ar_mailer

Changes:

1.2.0

  • Bugs fixed
    • Handle SMTPServerBusy by backing off @delay seconds then re-queueing
    • Allow email delivery class to be set in ARMailer.
    • ar_sendmail—mailq works with—table-name now.
  • Miscellaneous Updates
  • Added documentation to require ‘action_mailer/ar_mailer’ in instructions.
  • Moved to ZSS p4 repository
  • Supports TLS now. Requested by Dave Thomas. smtp_tls.rb from Kyle Maxwell & etc.

Hi, Eric.

I have small improvement to your TLS code. It is better to let code define that server supports TLS or not.

And it is better to use following code def starttls getok(‘STARTTLS’) rescue return false return true end

So you no need to add extra option to configuration.

@Anatol: How is this functionally different from the TLS code in ar_mailer 1.2.0?
