+== Setting defaults
+
+It is possible to set default values that will be used in every method in your Action Mailer class. To implement this functionality, you just call the public class method <tt>default</tt> which you get for free from ActionMailer::Base. This method accepts a Hash as the parameter. You can use any of the headers e-mail messages has, like <tt>:from</tt> as the key. You can also pass in a string as the key, like "Content-Type", but Action Mailer does this out of the box for you, so you wont need to worry about that. Finally it is also possible to pass in a Proc that will get evaluated when it is needed.
+
+Note that every value you set with this method will get over written if you use the same key in your mailer method.

+Example:

 *Rails 3.1.0 (unreleased)*
 
+* ConnectionManagement middleware is changed to clean up the connection pool
+  after the rack body has been flushed.
+
+* Added an update_column method on ActiveRecord. This new method updates a given attribute on an object, skipping validations and callbacks.
+  It is recommended to use #update_attribute unless you are sure you do not want to execute any callback, including the modification of
+  the updated_at column. It should not be called on new records.
+  Example:
+
+    User.first.update_column(:name, "sebastian")         # => true
+
+  [Sebastian Martinez]
+
 * Associations with a :through option can now use *any* association as the
   through or source association, including other associations which have a
   :through option and has_and_belongs_to_many associations
