Getting rspec error: Net::SMTPServerBusy: Relay access denied

Rails
1

I’m trying to test registration emails (sent with devise), and I keep
getting the error:

Net::SMTPServerBusy: 454 4.7.1 [email protected]: Relay access
denied

I’m running Rails 3.2.11 with Capybara, and I have (temporarily) chopped
my
spec_helper.rb and test.rb files down to the bare minimum, still getting
the error above.
spec_helper.rb:

require ‘rubygems’
require ‘spork’
Spork.prefork do
ENV[“RAILS_ENV”] ||= ‘test’
require File.expand_path(“…/…/config/environment”, FILE)
require ‘rspec/rails’
require ‘rspec/autorun’
require ‘capybara/rspec’
Dir[Rails.root.join(“spec/support/**/*.rb”)].each {|f| require f}

RSpec.configure do |config|
config.use_transactional_fixtures = true
config.infer_base_class_for_anonymous_controllers = false
endend
Spork.each_run do
FactoryGirl.reloadend

test.rb:

Upficial::Application.configure do
config.whiny_nils = true
config.consider_all_requests_local = true
config.action_controller.perform_caching = false
config.action_mailer.delivery_method = :testend

The test itself is very straightforward:

require ‘spec_helper’

describe User do
it “sends a confirmation email” do
@user = FactoryGirl.create(:user, email: “[email protected]”,
username: “model_spec”)
@user.send_confirmation_instructions
ActionMailer::Base.deliveries.last.to.should == [@user.email]
endend

I get the same result whether I run with guard/spork or with ‘rspec
spec/models/user_spec.rb’; the test always fails with

Net::SMTPServerBusy: 454 4.7.1 [email protected]: Relay access
denied

Any idea on what configurations should be changed, if any?

The ONLY thing I can think of here is that RAILS_ENV is set to
something other than test – this might explain why test.rb isn’t
getting picked up either. But I am stumped.

end
config.action_controller.perform_caching = false
config.action_mailer.delivery_method = :test

According to the guides, this is redundant, but I think I’d still leave
it in.
