Pony, the express way to send email in Ruby ↑

Overview ↑

Ruby no longer has to be jealous of PHP’s mail() function, which can send an email in a single command.

Pony.mail(:to => '[email protected]', :from => '[email protected]', :subject => 'hi', :body => 'Hello there.')

Any option key may be omitted except for :to.

Transport ↑

Pony uses /usr/sbin/sendmail to send mail if it is available, otherwise it uses SMTP to localhost.

This can be over-ridden if you specify a via option

Pony.mail(:to => '[email protected]', :via => :smtp) # sends via SMTP

Pony.mail(:to => '[email protected]', :via => :sendmail) # sends via sendmail

You can also specify options for SMTP:

Pony.mail(:to => '[email protected]', :via => :smtp, :smtp => {
  :host   => 'smtp.yourserver.com',
  :port   => '25',
  :user   => 'user',
  :pass   => 'pass',
  :auth   => :plain # :plain, :login, :cram_md5, no auth by default
  :domain => "localhost.localdomain" # the HELO domain provided by the client to the server
}
