You're also pulling from the wrong git repo. Should be: gem ‘remail’, :git => ‘git://github.com/maccman/remail.git’ Peter,

I am getting the same problem as Matt,

How is it fixed?

gem ‘remail’, :git => ‘git://github.com/maccman/remail-engine.git’

Are you using the github version of the Ruby gem - it includes some Rails 3 fixes. I've just released those fixes into the gem, should propagate soon. If you have further trouble email me (email on about page). Can you log the dict that’s causing the issue – I need to see its attributes.

By coincidence I was looking to find some introduction to this subject matter so that I can understand the more intricate elements that are being offered elsewhere. I particularly like the way that you have managed to explain things in plain English. Many thanks. This is excellent information.

I'm not really interested in learning Ruby, but I do have a particular need and I think remail is my best option. I put together an Arduino microcontroller to measure temperature and some other things, this data is pushed out to a website called Pachube. Pachube has HTTP Post triggers that you can set if certain conditions are met. I want to use pachube triggers to post to remail so I can get an email alert. Thanks for your help Alex.

But, to answer your questions: To install git, just google git osx - there's an installer binary. To install a gem, just type sudo gem install remail inside the osx terminal - RubyGems is a Ruby package manager. Hope that was useful.
