The message below was generated, rejected and returned to the sender address. Notice that there are two fields "From:" but no field "To:".
There should have a field "To:" containing the email address of an user the administrator registered manually.

A message that you sent contained no recipient addresses, and therefore no
delivery could be attempted.

Report about the same problem¶

See: https://github.com/mikel/mail/issues/70#issuecomment-2639987

It's a problem in Debian boxes.
Changing the default arguments, it's possible to circumvent the trouble.

Solution¶

Review your config/configuration.yml and make sure you define sendmail_settings arguments as shown below:

# default configuration options for all environments
default:
  email_delivery:    
    delivery_method: :sendmail
    sendmail_settings:
      arguments: "-i"
