Problem with ActionMailer#template_root in Rails 2.1

Hi,

I'm using sms_fu plugin and after upgrading Rails to 2.1 it breaks.

There's ActionMailer (in vendor/plugins/sms_fu/lib) that has template_root method defined:

def template_root   "#{File.dirname(__FILE__)}/../views" end

but when trying to create an email I get the following error: ActionView::TemplateFinder::InvalidViewPath: Unprocessed view path found: "/myapp/vendor/plugins/sms_fu/lib/../views". Set your view paths with #append_view_path, #prepend_view_path, or #view_paths=.

When I remove template root it says it can't find a view, which is understood. The problem is that ActionMailer doesn't have append_view_path method, so I'm not sure how to tell Rails to use vendor/plugins/sms_fu/views as well.

Any ideas how to fix it?

Just found out that the plugin was updated to be compatible with Rails 2.1 :slight_smile:
