From: Brantley Shields Date: 2008-04-24T23:18:52+09:00 Subject: Re: Email/SMTP::NET Problems Greetings, I've found some information that may be useful to those helping me on this small project. The following code works just fine: from_address = 'bshields@linus.highpoint.edu' to_address = 'brantley_shields@yahoo.com' Net::SMTP.start('linus.highpoint.edu') do |smtp| smtp.send_message(myMessage,from_address,to_address) end So, what is the difference between " and ' to ruby? I checked the error logs on my server (got ahold of the administrator) and the logs show a tainted to_address. I know the email itself is not tainted and that it will send an email address to the one being put into to_address. I've tried multiple simple email addresses such as "hello@yahoo.com" which would not be tainted. So I think its confusing the string or whatever to_address is being referred to as, its interpretting it as something else. how can I convert to_address to 'somelikethis' ?
