What would you do if one needs to send emails from multiple accounts (more than 2) ? Creating n models is not very scalable.

4ex:

class TestMailer 

  def load_settings(site)

    options = YAML.load_file("#{RAILS_ROOT}/config/test.yml")[RAILS_ENV][site]

    @@smtp_settings = {

      :address              => options["address"],

      :port                 => options["port"],

      :domain               => options["domain"],

      :authentication       => options["authentication"],

      :user_name            => options["user_name"],

      :password             => options["password"]

    }

    @template = site

  end

 

  def welcome_email(recipient, site, sent_at = Time.now)

    load_settings(site)

    @subject = "Thank you for visiting #{site}"

    @recipients = RAILS_ENV == "production" ? recipient : "cavneb@gmail.com"

    @from = 'gary@superfriends.com'

    @sent_on = sent_at

  end

end

This is exactly what i was searching, thanks for the code.

Nilesh:

You can use database to store multiple SMTP configuration. Then dynamically load settings.

i think this will suffice your need.
