will this work?

Answer 1

Debian 8 + Rails4.2.6 + Exim version 4.84_2

I added to my config/enviroments/production.rb file:

config.action_mailer.default_options     = { from: 'mybox@hostname.com' }
config.action_mailer.default_url_options = { host: 'hostname.com' }
config.action_mailer.perform_deliveries    = true
config.action_mailer.raise_delivery_errors = true

and clear(commented) from delivery_method and sendmail_settings params:

# config.action_mailer.delivery_method = :sendmail
# config.action_mailer.sendmail_settings = {
#     :location => '/usr/sbin/exim4',
#     :arguments => '-i'
# }

And it's work!
