Sidekiq and rails 4 actionmailer never delivers emails

Question

I\'ve setup sidekiq in a rails 4 application for sending emails and processing background jobs. I have also devise which I am using devise_async and a typical contact form email

Answer 1

I found it, you have to run sidekiq like this:

RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec sidekiq -D

to run in production. It's the same issue as the assets precompile.
