Generate a Mailer Model and View

In terminal:

rails g mailer UserMailer

or create a mailers/user_mailer.rb

class GroupMailer < ActionMailer::Base
  default from: Settings.mailer.from

  def example_email(user)
    @user = user
    @url  = "http://example.com/login"
    mail(to: user.email, subject: "Example Subject")
  end
end

create a layout for emails as views/layouts/mailer_default.html.haml

!!!
%html{ lang: "en" }
  %head
    %meta{ content: "text/html", charset: "utf-8", http-equiv: "Content-Type" }/
  %body
    #wrapper

Designate ActionMailer to recognize HAML files

Add to config/environments.rb

ActionMailer::Base.register_template_extension('haml')

ActionMailer::Base.smtp_settings = {

  domain:               Settings.mailer.domain,
