= Action Mailer -- Easy email delivery and testing
Action Mailer is a framework for designing email-service layers. These layers
are used to consolidate code for sending out forgotten passwords, welcome
wishes on signup, invoices for billing, and any other use case that requires
a written notification to either a person or another system.
Additionally, an Action Mailer class can be used to process incoming email,
such as allowing a weblog to accept new posts from an email (which could even
have been sent from a phone).
== Sending emails
The framework works by setting up all the email details, except the body,
in methods on the service layer. Subject, recipients, sender, and timestamp
are all set up this way. An example of such a method:
def signed_up(recipient)
recipients recipient
subject "[Signed up] Welcome #{recipient}"
from "system@loudthinking.com"

body :recipient => recipient
end
The body of the email is created by using an Action View template (regular
ERb) that has the content of the body hash parameter available as instance variables.
So the corresponding body template for the method above could look like this:
Hello there,
Mr. <%= @recipient %>
And if the recipient was given as "david@loudthinking.com", the email
generated would look like this:
Date: Sun, 12 Dec 2004 00:00:00 +0100
From: system@loudthinking.com
To: david@loudthinking.com
Subject: [Signed up] Welcome david@loudthinking.com
Hello there,
Mr. david@loudthinking.com
You never actually call the instance methods like signed_up directly. Instead,
you call class methods like deliver_* and create_* that are automatically
created for each instance method. So if the signed_up method sat on
ApplicationMailer, it would look like this:
ApplicationMailer.create_signed_up("david@loudthinking.com") # => tmail object for testing
ApplicationMailer.deliver_signed_up("david@loudthinking.com") # sends the email
ApplicationMailer.new.signed_up("david@loudthinking.com") # won't work!
== Receiving emails
To receive emails, you need to implement a public instance method called receive that takes a
tmail object as its single parameter. The Action Mailer framework has a corresponding class method,
which is also called receive, that accepts a raw, unprocessed email as a string, which it then turns
into the tmail object and calls the receive instance method.
Example:
class Mailman < ActionMailer::Base
def receive(email)
page = Page.find_by_address(email.to.first)
page.emails.create(
:subject => email.subject, :body => email.body
)
if email.has_attachments?
for attachment in email.attachments
page.attachments.create({
:file => attachment, :description => email.subject
})
end
end
end
end

This Mailman can be the target for Postfix or other MTAs. In Rails, you would use the runner in the
trivial case like this:
./script/runner 'Mailman.receive(STDIN.read)'
