switch to new server broke rails 2.2.2 app email

Moving to a new server broke all of my mailers in a rails 2.2.2 app. To debug this i created the simplest test email possible and continue to get an error.

controller:

def send_new_password
  @login = params[:login]
  @user = User.find_by_login(@login)
  UserMailer.deliver_new_password(@user) # line cited in the error msg
  redirect_to login_path
end

user_mailer.rb:

class UserMailer < ActionMailer::Base
  def new_password(user)
    recipients  user.email
    from        "service@ourdomain.com"
    subject     "New Password from ourdomain.com"
    body        "test test"
  end
end

error msg:

wrong number of arguments (3 for 2)
