It appears there are two ways to create mail with Action Mailer:
I use this way, I noticed exception_notification does as well:
def confirm(order) subject "Some subject" recipients order.email from @@from body :order => order end
AWDwR P1.00 printing, November 22, 2006 uses this way:
def confirm(order) @subject = "Pragmatic Store Order Confirmation" @recipients = order.email @from = 'orders@pragprog.com' @sent_on = Time.now @body["order"] = order end
The later has been around as long as I can remember, while I _thought_ the former was the "newer" way. It seems much cleaner, but it would be nice to clear up the confusion on where this all stands. Which should be used going forward?
