Hi there, I've found this to work quite fast...

    ActionMailer::Base.delivery_method = :sendmail  
    ActionMailer::Base.perform_deliveries = true  
    ActionMailer::Base.raise_delivery_errors = true  
    ActionMailer::Base.default_charset = "utf-8"

Connecting to smtp was too slow for my tastes....

Cheers,

That works very well.  Thanks

Where does the above code go?

At the very bottom of your config/environment.rb file.

Thanks sir.  That worked like a charm.

hi anyone know of any nice tutorails for how to setup a rails app to recieve incoming email?

Yeah - I remember it was a bit of a chore - but I have it pretty fresh in my head.  Check out
http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/HowToReceiveEmailsWithActionMailer for starters.  To get it running on your HostingRails account you'll need to add a forwarder in cPanel and instead of an email address use:

|/usr/local/bin/ruby /home/username/railsapp/script/runner -e production Mailman.receive(STDIN.read)

We'll have to modify something for you custom, but then you can have the Mailman model do all the work when it receives the TMail object...

If you'd like to help me write a wiki tutorial that'd be cool - if not, no worries..we'll get it done soon.  

Cheers,
~William

BTW - if you have more questions/comments on this please open up a new thread....
