Strange issue iwth sending smtp with gmail

ruby-talk
1

Hello
When i use this class and execute it, it works fine. i am able to send
email thro gmail. however it does not work if i call this method from
another class. i get a smtp error. dunno what the reasons are. i am
attaching the working file and not working file.

require "action_mailer"
require "smtp_tls"

#ActionMailer::Base.smtp_settings =
#{:address => "smtp.example.com",
# :domain => "example.com"}

class GmailMailer < ActionMailer::Base
    ActionMailer::Base.smtp_settings = {
:address => "smtp.gmail.com",
:port => 587,
:authentication => :plain,
:user_name => "user@gmail.com",
:password => "password"
    }
  def sendmsg(to, sender, subj, content, strip_ext = true)

    #standard ActionMailer message setup
    recipients to
    from sender
    subject subj
    #setting the body explicitly means we don't have to provide a
separate template file
    body content

    ##set up the attachment
    #attachment :content_type => content_type,
    # :body => File.read(file_name),
    # :filename => file_name.gsub(/.*\//,'')
  end
end
GmailMailer.deliver_sendmsg("anotheremail@hotmail.com","user@gmail.com","hello
this is a test","this is a body")
# The above class works as long as the GmailMailer.deliver is called
with thin the fine.

However the following does not work at all if i call it from another
class
GmailMailer.deliver_sendmsg( "another email
address" ,"user1@gmail.com"," "sometext ","some more text")
I get the following error.
e:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/xmlconfigfile.rb:646: warning:
