Anybody able to try and install Discourse as a normal Rails app (no Docker) and see why it won't send emails from ones localhost SMTP server?

Sending emails from other Rails apps work just fine.

I have setup a plain rails installation of Discourse before. For SMTP on localhost I used this: http://mailcatcher.me/ – nahtnam Jul 24 '15 at 18:51
Did your email settings differ from the ones at https://meta.discourse.org/t/emails-with-local-smtp/23645/15? – Mark Boulder Jul 25 '15 at 14:06
Not sure. I just used this: https://github.com/pl3bs/dontdockmebro – nahtnam Jul 25 '15 at 20:51
So by using that, if registering your first user in Discourse, you will receive a welcome email to your localhost? – Mark Boulder Jul 25 '15 at 21:21
Assuming you setup mailcatcher and set that as your smtp settings. – nahtnam Jul 25 '15 at 22:11
