Introduction

Mailr is a IMAP mail client based on Ruby on Rails platform.

Installation guide

NOTE All path and filenames are based on Rails.root directory.

Requirements

In Rails 3 all dependencies should be defined in file Gemfile. All needed gems can be installed using bundler.

Installation procedure

• Checkout the source code.

• If you need to override some of the default constants used in the application take a look at config/default_site.rb. Then create config/site.rb that contains only the keys which you want to override. Example content of config/site.rb is:

module CDF

LOCALCONFIG = {
  :imap_server => 'your.imap.server'
}
end

• Configure SMTP settings

# initializers/smtp_settings.rb
  ActionMailer::Base.smtp_settings = {
  :address => "mail.example.com.py",
  :port => 26,
  :authentication => :plain,
  :enable_starttls_auto => true,
  :user_name => "emilio@example.com.py",
  :password => "yourpass"
}

• Prepare config/database.yml file (see config/database.yml.example). Check if proper gems (sqlite3/mysql/postgresql) are defined in Gemfile and installed.

• Migrate database (rake db:migrate)

• Use it.
