Subject: net/smtp question

Ive tried several examples from numerous books trying to send mail with
net smtp and i never really get the emails.

require 'net/smtp'

message = <<MESSAGE_END
From: Nobody <nobody@power.net>
To: Someone <someone@hotmail.com>
Subject: Test SMTP

i pray that itll work
MESSAGE_END

Net::SMTP.start('mx1.hotmail.com') do |smtp|
  smtp.send_message message, 'nobody@power.net', 'someone@hotmail.com'
end

#####
This was one example, i receive no errors indicating a problem but when
checking my email IE: someone@hotmail.com  i dont have it in any
folders, not inbox or junkmail.

Another version that i modified to fit my own needs was this ----

require 'net/smtp'

puts "Sender: "
sender = gets.chomp
puts "Recipient: "
rcpt = gets.chomp
puts "Message: "
msg = gets.chomp

smtp = Net::SMTP.new('mx1.hotmail.com')

smtp.start()

smtp.ready(sender, rcpt) do |mail|

 mail.write msg

end

#########
once again no errors

any ideas why i might not be getting the emails?
