I'm working on an application with Rails 4 on Ruby 2.0.0. The application sends out an email after a registration in Devise.
This is the code that sends the email:
app/models/sponsor.rb:
after_create :send_email_to_admin
private
def send_email_to_admin
AdminMailer.new_sponsor_email(self).deliver
end
app/mailers/admin_mailer.rb
class AdminMailer < ActionMailer::Base
default to: '**removed**'
def new_sponsor_email(sponsor)
@sponsor = sponsor
p @sponsor
mail(subject: "New Sponsor Registration")
end
end
And this is the generated email from the log file:
Sent mail to **removed** (725.5ms)
Date: Mon, 02 Sep 2013 15:01:03 -0400
From: **removed**
To: **removed**

when I try to test the code by creating a sponsor, I just get this error:
Net::SMTPSyntaxError in Devise::RegistrationsController#create
501 5.5.4 Invalid argument
My understanding is that this is typically because the email is and invalid email, but all of my emails are very simple, in the format of name@domain.tld and no-reply@domain.tld.
