Hi.

I’ve this code:

···

#!/usr/bin/ruby
require ‘net/smtp’

msg = <<END_OF_MESSAGE
From: Dirk-From dirk@we-devedge.de
To: Dirk-To dirk.einecke@gmx.de
Subject: ruby test mail
Date: #{Time.now.strftime(“%a, %d %b %Y %H:%M:%S %z %Z”)}
Message-Id: <#{“%.8f” % Time.now.to_f}@we-devedge.de>

test text
END_OF_MESSAGE

Net::SMTP.start(server = ‘pop3.we-devedge.de’, port = 25) {

smtp>smtp.sendmail(msg, ‘dirk@we-devedge.de’, ‘dirk.einecke@gmx.de’) }

But I get a error 500
from /usr/lib/ruby/1.6/net/protocol.rb:164:in conn_command' from /usr/lib/ruby/1.6/net/smtp.rb:238:in do_start’
from /usr/lib/ruby/1.6/net/protocol.rb:131:in start' from /usr/lib/ruby/1.6/net/protocol.rb:71:in start’
from mail.rb:15

of script headers: /kunden/we-devedge.de/ruby/htdocs/mail.rb

Can anybody help me with this problem?
What can I do?

Try this :
smtp = Net::SMTP.new(‘smtp.we-devedge.de’,25)
smtp.start(‘we-devedge.de’)
smtp.ready(‘dirk@we-devedge.de’, ‘dirk.einecke@gmx.de’) do |a|
a.write msg
end

Hi,

In mail “Problem with sending a mail”

I’ve this code:

Net::SMTP.start(server = ‘pop3.we-devedge.de’, port = 25) {

smtp>smtp.sendmail(msg, ‘dirk@we-devedge.de’, ‘dirk.einecke@gmx.de’) }

But I get a error 500

You must send correct HELO domain (default is “localhost.localdomain”).
Give 3rd argument of Net::SMTP.start:

Net::SMTP.start(‘pop3.we-devedge.de’, 25, ‘pop3.we-devedge.de’) {|smtp|
smtp.sendmail(msg, ‘dirk@we-devedge.de’, ‘dirk.einecke@gmx.de’)
}
