Unable to send emails

Added by Martin Assarsson about 13 years ago

I get this "classic" error message on top of page when I send a test email:
"An error occurred while sending mail (getaddrinfo: Name or service not known)"

This is my email.yml at the moment:
---
production:
delivery_method: :smtp
smtp_settings:
tls: true
enable_starttls_auto: true
address: "smtp.gmail.com"
port: 587
domain: "smtp.gmail.com"
authentication: :plain
user_name: "redmine@a******dev.com"
password: "4********t"
---

I'm able to log in to my gmail by web page.

ruby 1.8.7 (2010-08-16 patchlevel 302) [x86_64-linux]
Rails 2.3.5
Redmine 1.0.1.stable (MySQL)

Duh...
Packages installed via Debian package manager are always (?) configured to use /etc/xxxx as home fore configuration files.
This is no exception, Redmine use /etc/redmine/default/email.yml for emails...
