Running Rails 4 wih passenger, when attempt to send email it crashes with Completed 500 Internal Server Error (in the log). Do I need to set up Postfix in order to send emails from the app? My prduction SMTP settings
config.action_mailer.default_url_options = {:host => domain.com'} config.action_mailer.delivery_method = :smtp config.action_mailer.smtp_settings = { :address => "localhost", :port => 25, :domain => 'domain.com' }

How much mail do you anticipate sending? If it’s on the low end, perhaps a lightweight client like <a href=“https://www.digitalocean.com/community/questions/wordpress-email-notifications”>exim4</a> would work?
I recommend using a service such as Mandrill to send mail as it’s better than setting up your own mailserver. <br> <br>You can also install postfix and it should work fine.
I’ll try mandrill, after setting up postfix and SPF all emails go to spam… so it’s not very reliable. Thank you.
