I'm trying to set up a means to automatically send an email from certain parts of troubled code, that is, very often, code that might appear in the Rescue predicate of a begin.....rescue, so as to track down issues remotely.

Surely there must be a gem for such? If not, how might one construct something like this in code? TIA, RVic

The hosted services are a good first pick - if you need something like them but can't (for security or political reasons) use a third-party service, I'd recommend trying out Errbit:

Direct-to-email stuff (like the old exception_notification plugin) is usually sub-optimal: you'll wind up getting a lot of repeated emails if your site sees reasonable traffic, making it hard to pick out *unique* errors. The services / tools above all can send emails, but they default to only notifying you about "new" errors.
