Rails 3.2.2 - Right place for Mail configuration settings on Production

Question

It's a little bit confusing since every people say it's going on a different place of the application.

I'have been testing but with no luck.

So, whereś the right place for it?

config/environment.rb?
config/application.rb?
config/environments/production.rb?
config/initializers/anymodelname.rb?

This is what I have been testing on several places.

ActionMailer::Base.smtp_settings = { :address => "smtp.gmail.com", :port => 587, :user_name => "[email protected]", :password => 'password', :authentication => "plain", :enable_starttls_auto => true }

guides.rubyonrails.org/… suggests putting it in the config/environments/$RAILS_ENV.rb file so config/environments/production.rb would be the place to put it. When you say it does not work what errors are you getting? — ScottJShea

@ScottJShea the problem is that the Gmail is actually seems to be 'blocking' certain accounts from use their address, like I was trying to do with my own email account from my domain, just trying to use the 'smtp.gmail.com`. After creating a gmail account and replacing, it is working now. — Kleber S.

Strange but seems that Google are only allowing Gmail accounts to use with their servers, I have just to create a new Gmail account and it works with no kind of special settings.
