Send emails with Mandrill and Rails

Mandrill by MailChimp is an online service that sends transactional emails. We have used it to send emails in our Ruby on Rails apps for some time now, and we’ll show how to do that here.

Do you really want to have plain Mandrill password into config files ? Shouldn’t you use the “API_KEY” provided by Mandrill ? You could aslo play with sandbox mod for test and development environments. https://mandrillapp.com/settings

Same question as Fabien !

Hey Pierre, I finally find this into Mandrill documentation : https://mandrill.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/205582127-How-to-Use-the-SMTP-Integration-with-Popular-Web-Frameworks

You can replace Mandrill password with API_KEY. “SMTP password is any valid API key” :)

Hey Fabien, thank you, very usefull! But I’ve already read it…not the solution for my problem

You can use basic HTML markup (e.g. <a>) or Markdown.
