class Mail::Sendmail
A delivery method implementation which sends via sendmail.
To use this, first find out where the sendmail binary is on your computer, if you are on a mac or unix box, it is usually in /usr/sbin/sendmail, this will be your sendmail location.
Mail.defaults do delivery_method :sendmail end
Or if your sendmail binary is not at '/usr/sbin/sendmail'
Mail.defaults do delivery_method :sendmail, :location => '/absolute/path/to/your/sendmail' end
Then just deliver the email as normal:
Mail.deliver do to 'mikel@test.lindsaar.net' from 'ada@test.lindsaar.net' subject 'testing sendmail' body 'testing sendmail' end
Or by calling deliver on a Mail message
mail = Mail.new do to 'mikel@test.lindsaar.net' from 'ada@test.lindsaar.net' subject 'testing sendmail' body 'testing sendmail' end mail.deliver!

The following is an adaptation of ruby 1.9.2's shellwords.rb file, it is modified to include '+' in the allowed list to allow for sendmail to accept email addresses as the sender with a + in them.
# File lib/mail/network/delivery_methods/sendmail.rb, line 79 def self.shellquote(address) # Process as a single byte sequence because not all shell # implementations are multibyte aware. # # A LF cannot be escaped with a backslash because a backslash + LF # combo is regarded as line continuation and simply ignored. Strip it. escaped = address.gsub(/([^A-Za-z0-9_\s\+\-.,:\/@])/n, "\\\\\\1").gsub("\n", '') %Q("#{escaped}") end
