Sending confirmation emails to registered users in ROR app via localhost

Question

In my ROR app, I am trying to send confirmation emails to my registered users when they signup, my website is on localhost currently. I am getting this error:

Answer 1

** development.rb**

config.action_mailer.delivery_method = :sendmail
config.action_mailer.perform_deliveries = true
config.action_mailer.raise_delivery_errors = true

** Users_controller.rb **

def new
  UserMailer.registration_confirmation(@user).deliver
end
def create
  @user = User.new(params[:user])
  if @user.save
    UserMailer.registration_confirmation(@user).deliver
    sign_in @user
    flash[:success] = "Welcome!"
    redirect_to @user
  else
    render 'new'
  end
end

** User_mailer.rb **

 def registration_confirmation(user) 
   @message = 'whatever you want to say here!'
   mail(:from => "myemailid@gmail.com", :to => user.email, :subject => "Thank you for registration")
end

**/app/views/user_mailer/registration_confirmation.text.erb *

<%= @message %>

That's what I've done in my development mode, and it works
