Net::SMTP.start do |smtp|

You don't say which docs you got this example from, but this does not match the examples in net/smtp.

You need to specify a hostname to attach to.

match the examples in net/smtp.

I downloaded the one-click installer and I have that in my docs. Not

You need to specify a hostname to attach to.

In the meantime, I found the answer as well. : )
