Bug #13018

Updated by tobymurray-nanometrics (Toby Murray) almost 8 years ago

Originally filed against Rails: https://github.com/rails/rails/issues/27298 

 ``` 
 require 'net/smtp' 

 real_email_address = '' # This needs to actually be a real account 
 real_email_password = '' # This needs to actually be the corresponding password 

 #line 96 of mail-2.2.7/lib/mail/network/delivery_methods/smtp.rb 
 smtp = Net::SMTP.new('smtp-relay.gmail.com', 587) 
 smtp.enable_starttls_auto if smtp.respond_to?(:enable_starttls_auto) 
 # smtp.set_debug_output $stderr # Uncomment this line to see SMTP session details 

 smtp.start('does-not-matter', real_email_address, real_email_password, 'Login') do |smtp| 
   smtp.sendmail('Message does not matter', 'inconsistent from address', 'does not matter') 
 end 
 ``` 

 Yields `end of file reached (EOFError)`. From the discussion there, discussiont here, it seems like the SMTP relay is inappropriately killing the session, but I believe it should be wrapped in a different error - e.g. Net:SMTPError. As it stands, there's no stack trace available or this error, so it just appears and is difficult to find.  

 Tried with 2.4.0-preview3, 2.3.3, and 2.3.1 (as well as jruby-9.1.6.0) and all had the same behavior
