+ # == Mailer Models
#
# To use Action Mailer, you need to create a mailer model.
#
# $ rails generate mailer Notifier
#
- # The generated model inherits from <tt>ActionMailer::Base</tt>. A mailer model defines methods
- # used to generate an email message. In these methods, you can setup variables to be used in
- # the mailer views, options on the mail itself such as the <tt>:from</tt> address, and attachments.

+ # model defines methods used to generate an email message. In these methods,
+ # you can setup variables to be used in the mailer views, options on the mail
+ # itself such as the <tt>:from</tt> address, and attachments.
#
# Examples:
#
# class Notifier < ActionMailer::Base
- # default :from => 'no-reply@example.com',
- # :return_path => 'system@example.com'
+ # default from: 'no-reply@example.com',
+ # return_path: 'system@example.com'
#
# def welcome(recipient)
# @account = recipient
- # mail(:to => recipient.email_address_with_name,
- # :bcc => ["bcc@example.com", "Order Watcher <watcher@example.com>"])
+ # mail(to: recipient.email_address_with_name,
+ # bcc: ['bcc@example.com', 'Order Watcher <watcher@example.com>'])
# end
# end
#
# Within the mailer method, you have access to the following methods:
#
- # * <tt>attachments[]=</tt> - Allows you to add attachments to your email in an intuitive

- # as <tt>headers['X-No-Spam'] = 'True'</tt>. Note, while most fields like <tt>To:</tt>
- # <tt>From:</tt> can only appear once in an email header, other fields like <tt>X-Anything</tt>
- # can appear multiple times. If you want to change a field that can appear multiple times,
